“I haven’t had discussions with HBO about it," said Condal, per Variety. "I would just anticipate the cadence of the show, from a dramatic storytelling perspective, will continue to be the same from Season 2 on.”
Speaking on the way Season 2 ended — basically a whole lot of setup for battles to come, and not much action — Condal said that they're trying to give the upcoming Battle of the Gullet plenty of breathing space, and that the action won't be too far away.
"We were trying to give the Gullet, which is arguably the most anticipated — well, I would say maybe the second-most-anticipated — action event of Fire & Blood, trying to give it the time and the space that it deserves. Obviously, as anybody that’s seen the finale, we're building to that event. That event will happen very shortly in terms of the storytelling of House of the Dragon," Condal said.
