The first teaser is set to the voiceover of Daemon Targaryen, played by Matt Smith, saying: “Dreams didn’t make us kings, dragons did.”

In addition to Smith, the first teaser offer glimpses at several more key players set to star in House of the Dragon, including Olivia Cooke as Lady Alicent Hightower and Emma D’Arcy as Rhaenyra Targaryen. The show is also set to star Paddy Considine as King Viserys Targaryen and Rhys Ifans as Otto Hightower.

For those who are unfamiliar with the battle, it was fought between Britain and the US, as well as their respective allies.

During an appearance on The Late Late Show which also starred High School Musical alum, Vanessa Hudgens, the pair pointed out that they don’t know really understand Halloween as a result of their geographical upbringing.

October 31st is considered a day of great importance state-side, with Vanessa saying she “lives for Halloween!”

James responded by saying, “See, we’re British, we don’t really get it.”

“It’s not a holiday! It’s not a holiday. It’s a day, it passes. Everyone gets dressed up,” Matt chipped in.

The host continued by saying, “It’s like the account manager at my son’s school, who is like an accountant at a big law firm and then he’s opening the door with a big ax in his face and blood dripping down, which like, this is completely normal. And it’s interesting for 30 seconds and then you end up just going, ‘Oh, did you see the game last night?’ And with a man with an axe in the face!”

We think he may have a point…

Netflix has now released the first image of its new star of The Crown.

For the past two years, The Girl in the Spider’s Web actress, Claire Foy, portrayed the role of Queen Elizabeth II in the series which documents the monarch’s life from her marriage to Prince Phillip through to the birth of her third son.

With the show now moving into the latter year’s of the Queen’s life, Claire will be passing the baton on to Broadchurch star, Olivia Colman.

The first image of Olivia as Her Majesty has now emerged, showing the 44-year-old dressed in pink with a cup of tea in her hand.

The Crown was recently embroiled in a gender wage discrepancy debacle when it was discovered that Doctor Who star, Matt Smith, who played Prince Phillip, had been earning more than Miss Foy.

Following the reveal, producers promised that going forth, “no one would be paid more than the Queen,” meaning that Olivia will reap the rewards.

She will be joined by Toby Menzies of Outlander as the new Phillip, and Alice Through the Looking Glass actress, Helena Bonham Carter as Princess Margaret.

Season 3 of The Crown is expected to greet the public in 2019.
