House of the Dragon stars promise the new series will be more diverse than its predecessor Game of Thrones, tackling misogyny head-on.

In the original book, actor Steve Toussaint’s character Corlys Velaryon is white, but the executive producers wanted this cast to represent the

world people live in.“One of the supporting actors came up to me and said, ‘it’s so good to see you guys up there, because representation matters’.”

Glad you told me now so I don’t have to waste my time watching that crap

Boring as bat shit....

Wokeism now attacking the past 🙈😆 Though in a fictional world, GOT and this series are based upon attitudes centuries ago, why the need to challenge this kind of history to make a point for the present? Can't we just have one show post 2020 that doesn't need to virtue signal ☹️

Mmmmm Do people actually care watching escapism?

Diverse = politically correct trash

.....

misogyny is a good trait and justifiable when it comes to some females!

Oh god, that has just ruined it! Australia

Go woke go broke!

🤡🚮 so basically it's trash

So its dead on arrival

'Tackling misogny head on' Dooms it to be less succesful than its precursor which it relies upon for an audience.

I won't watch it.

Victimisation is a mindset

Ummmm they literally cut a baby out of a lady with a little 'milk of the poppy' and watch her bleed out with arterial pulsaters . There was mass carnage during the entire episode, whores, the word cunt thrown around etc. Don t listen to peoples bullshit. It was awesome. GOT

Yes. Because diversity was huge in those days... 🤡

No one will care because no one will watch!

Sounds shit

Great another thing to be disappointed about, I was looking forward to it too 😔

Sounds very dull

I'm so excited

Ratings dive pending.

So they're going to nag the audience? So female! That totally ruined any anticipation I might have had. SickOfBeingPreachedAt.

Why would a fantasy tale set about to tackle 'misogyny head-on'? Why not just a good romp through fantasy land?

Wow! Did that ever ruin any anticipation I might have had. SickOfBeingPreachedAt.

Yawn.

More diverse. stick a mullet up ya

I’ve just finished reading the book that series is based on. It’s incredibly misogynistic - as it was in medieval times. Huge war fought over male right of male primogeniture. I hope they haven’t screwed it up with unauthentic woke crap.

I support that as long as there is lots of tits and pussy .

FFS .

Diverse? Then it's going to fail. Just look at the film franchises that have tried it. The vast majority of people don't care about woke, diverse, gender political agendas, aka 'the message'.

Go woke, go broke comes to mind....

More fact in House of Dragons than Sky News I imagine!

Are you fkn kidding me.

Yep. So I won't be watching then.

Now copy GOT version democrats party...

Who gives a fark about it's diversity. Sky news has gone very ABC like this year

Who cares. Both shows are garbage anyway

Yes because that’s how you make good series or movie 🤯🤡

Haha so its gonna be woke garbage. Yipppeee

Oh god....

Yes that's what every fan of a franchise wants. Feminazis no talent scriptwriters to hijack a loved IP and butcher it with thier leftard woketard delusional messaging. Thats certainly the best way to get the fans watching.

Was going to watch it but I won’t bother now. Go woke, go broke.

uuuuuuugggggggghhhhhhhhhh

I'd already decided it wouldn't be worth watching, this nonsense only backs up my previous prediction. It will no doubt fail miserably just like everything else the 'more diverse' people touch.

Go woke, go broke. Just another trash.

If there's a 🍆 in a frock who thinks he's a woman I'll changer the channel.

An emphasis on diversity will I prophesise destroy it.

Great….

Well I know that's how I choose what to watch 🙄

How bizarre, how can it? It's on mysoginistic Foxtel/Binge who still haven't apologised to Emilia Clarke for insulting her🤷

Oh no......won't watch now

If you want to make it work...don't promote this diversity woke crap. We want to watch these shows to take our minds OFF the crap you and the rest of the media pump out daily.....

Cool. So I know in advance its not shooting for good TV, but something else. I'll know to look elsewhere.

'... more diverse than its predecessor... ' actually means it is more likely to fail. Just as progressive superhero movies have done.
