Season two will focus even more on Daemon and Rhaenyra, but we will not see them anytime soon. Filming is supposed to start in Spain in the early Spring of 2023.

It usually takes six months to film a season and at least the same amount of time for the work of the CGI studios.

The main reason for the long wait would be the late confirmation of season two by HBO.
