The Battle in the Gullet (or the Battle of the Gullet) has attracted attention since HBO's Head of Drama Series and Films, Francesca Orsi, spoke of it in an interview with Deadline at The White Lotus Season 3 premiere. It is now confirmed that the epic naval battle will open Season 3, with four Blacks' dragons expected to soar into the fray. House of the Dragon should live up to expectations, as its predecessor, Game of Thrones, broke new ground in the contemporary TV landscape with the scale, spectacle, and emotionality of Hardhome, the Battle of the Bastards, and the Battle of Winterfell.
