The show was actually scheduled for release in the US on 4th August 2024. The viewers from the UK and Ireland would be able to enjoy the show on 5th August. However, several videos are now leaked online from its eighth episode.
The videos were posted on 30 July, Tuesday night. The identity of the video leaker is not identified yet. However, a storm took over the internet instantaneously. Comments are beginning to appear on social media from all directions.
It appears that the 30-minute videos have been recorded from a screening of the show that are taken from a secondary device. Before their instant removal from the TikTok account, the videos already gained more than 100,000 views online and had been re-shared innumerable times.
The fans are still waiting for any other video to show up, despite the release date being quite near. House of Dragon has faced a similar issue before, prior to the release of season 1.
House of Dragon, season 1 incident
The season 1 finale was also leaked online with several videos when its release date was scheduled for 1 October 2022. HBO reported that the breaches originated from a distribution partner located in Europe, the Middle East, or Africa.
As far as the leaks of the 2022 season are concerned, HBO broadcaster condemned the act and declared it as a breach. He said, “We’re disappointed that this unlawful action has disrupted the viewing experience for loyal fans of the show, who will get to see a pristine version of the episode when it premieres Sunday”.
He further confirmed that HBO is taking all possible actions to take the video off the internet. Pulling all copies from the internet is part of their aggressive action plan against the breach committed.
A similar situation happened in 2017 when a Game of Thrones episode from season 7 was leaked online. It was uploaded on a torrent website before the actual release date. HBO knew that the breach had happened by a third-party vendor by mistake.
House of Dragon is based on a history book, Fire and Blood. The book is believed to be authored by the Archmeaster of Westeros about the happenings of Targaryen’s reign. Beginning from the era shown in Game of Thrones, the House of Targaryen is shown to be at its peak of power.
The show proceeds with suspense and thrill when the fifth Targaryen ruler, King Vererys, names his daughter as the next heir to the throne. This title was never granted to females before, which raised questions about his succession and the future of the state.
The grandeur and storytelling techniques with a grim and grey approach within the show caught the hearts of the viewers. They are anxiously waiting for the next season so that they can enjoy the full story, right from episode 1.
