‘House of the Dragon’ Star Matt Smith Says He Hasn’t Seen a Season 3 Script or Heard a Pitch Yet

The plan for “House of the Dragon” Season 3 hasn’t made its way to star Matt Smith yet.

During a panel at New York Comic Con on Sunday featuring Smith, who plays Daemon Targaryen, and his “Game of Thrones” prequel co-stars Fabian Frankel (Criston Cole) and Tom Glynn-Carney (Aegon II Targaryen), the actors revealed they have varying levels of information from showrunner Ryan Condal and the writers regarding where the story goes after the Season 2 finale, which aired in August.

“Not a jot, not a letter,” Glynn-Carney said when moderator Josh Horowitz asked if any of them had seen a script for the upcoming third season. “The longer they take, the longer we don’t have to read anything for a while. ”

“I’ve not heard hide nor hair,” Smith interjected. “I don’t know about you guys. I’ve not heard a thing — have you?” he said, turning to Frankel.

“I’ve heard some things that I couldn’t possibly share here,” Frankel teased.

Smith, Glynn-Carney and Frankel’s admissions come nearly two months after “Game of Thrones” creator and author George R.R. Martin took to his personal blog to tease events he alleged were coming up in the final two seasons of “House of the Dragon,” which is based on his book “Fire & Blood.”

On Sept. 4, Martin published a post, which he later deleted, that detailed concerns he had with changes made to his overarching story from “Fire & Blood” in Season 2 of “House of the Dragon,” including the elimination of the character Prince Maelor, the youngest son of Glynn-Carney’s Aegon and Helaena (Phia Saban). He concluded the now-scrubbed post by saying, “And there are larger and more toxic butterflies to come, if HOUSE OF THE DRAGON goes ahead with some of the changes being contemplated for seasons 3 and 4…”

Martin’s post was made after showrunner Condal and HBO had confirmed the show will conclude with Season 4, giving the story two more seasons in total.

“There are few greater fans of George R.R. Martin and his book ‘Fire & Blood’ than the creative team on ‘House of the Dragon,’ both in production and at HBO,” an HBO spokesperson said in a statement at the time. “Commonly, when adapting a book for the screen, with its own format and limitations, the showrunner ultimately is required to make difficult choices about the characters and stories the audience will follow. We believe that Ryan Condal and his team have done an extraordinary job and the millions of fans the series has amassed over the first two seasons will continue to enjoy it.”
