The cost of each episode of the "Game of Thrones" prequel was named

Each episode of the series "House of the Dragon," which will be a prequel to the popular HBO TV show "Game of Thrones" cost about $ 20 million. Thus, the cost of production of the 10-episode first season, which will debut on August 21, 2022, was about $ 200 million.
Game of Thrones cost HBO about $100 million per season. The price per episode started at about six million dollars in the first season and rose to $15 million in the show's eighth and final season.
By comparison, Amazon's television series "Lord of the Rings: Rings of Power" cost about $465 million to produce the first season of eight episodes. In turn, Netflix shelled out about $30 million for each episode of the fourth season of the sci-fi show "Very Stranger Things," which will be released in two parts in May and July.
Recall that the action of "Dragon House" is set two centuries before the events of "Game of Thrones." It will deal with how House Targaryen took part in a fierce and brutal civil war known as the "Dance of the Dragons," which heralds the beginning of the end of the ruling family of Westeros. The title role is played by Paddy Considine.
