House of the Dragon ’s forthcoming season two finale has leaked online.
Several scenes from the episode, scheduled to air on 4 August in the US on HBO and on 5 August in the UK on Sky Atlantic , were shared online on Tuesday night (30 July).
One TikTok account posted 14 videos and around 30 minutes of footage from the finale, racking up hundreds of thousands of views.
The TikTok account has been banned, but the videos are now being circulated on other platforms such as Twitter/X and Reddit.
A spokesperson from HBO told The Independent : “We are aware that clips from the House of the Dragon season finale have surfaced across social media platforms. The clips were posted after an unintentional release from an international third-party distributor. HBO is aggressively monitoring and removing clips from the internet, and fans can watch the episode in its entirety this Sunday night on HBO and Max.”
This is not the first time the show has suffered a leak – the season one finale was leaked online two days before it was due to air in October 2022.
At the time, HBO said the leak came from a distribution partner in Europe, the Middle East or Africa.
“It appears to have originated from a distribution partner in the EMEA region,” a company spokesperson said in a statement at the time. “HBO is aggressively monitoring and pulling these copies from the internet.”
Many other shows have experienced online leaks over the years, including Game of Thrones, House of Cards and Homeland .
Fans have been reacting with disappointment to the House of the Dragon leaks, with one writing on X: “Why ruin the finale just wait people.”
“Leaks suck. Leaks need to go away,” added another.
House of the Dragon season two will likely end on a major naval battle in the war. In official teasers, it looked as if the action was heading out to sea. Multiple shots showed Corlys (Steve Toussaint) and Alyn (Abubakar Salim) in armour, rowing out to the ship they are fixing.
Huge armies are seen on the march wearing the colours of both House Stark and House Lannister.
There are also signs that Daemon (Matt Smith) might be finally leaving Harrenhal.
