Also in attendance at the photcall was Notting Hill actor Rhys, 56, who was sporting a very full beard.

Rhys kept things casual for the photocall, sporting a grey ensemble consisting of a suede bomber jacket, pleated trousers and a pair of trainers.

Looking cosy with Olivia, Fabien, 30, looked stylish in his own right as he posed for pictures.

The actor donned a dark cream relaxed shirt, which was tucked into a pair of grey paperbag trousers. He finished off the look with some brown leather loafers.

Among the cast at the Paris photocall was actress and director Eve Best, 52, who showed off her figure in a black figure-hugging gown.

Eve's off-the-shoulder dress had a cross-over style bust and she paired it with sheer strapped stilettos.

Phia Saban, who playsPrincess (later Queen) Helaena Targaryen, was also at the event.

The actress, 25, wore a tiny white frilled t-shirt dress and black patent stilettos, throwing a tan trench coat overtop and accessorising with a small red beaded bag.

Actor and writer Steve Toussaint, 59, put on a cheeky display at the photo call as he grinned and pointed the camera.

Steve looked smart for the occasion in a light grey double-breasted suit, which he paired with a dark shirt and black leather shoes.

House Of The Dragon — a prequel to Game of Thrones— follows the feud between Alicent and Rhaenyra as they vie for who will eventually rule from the Iron Throne. The highly-anticipated eight episode second season will debut on Max on June 16.

Last month fans were given another action-packed glimpse into season two.

In a new trailer for the next chapter of the Game of Thrones prequel, Matt, Emma, and Olivia are all seen returning for what is certain to be another dramatic season.

'The Targaryen who sits the Iron Throne is not just a king or a queen. They are a protector of the realm,' Queen Rhaenyra Targaryen (D'Arcy) is heard contemplating at the start of the trailer.

'Now I find myself in an impossible position,' Rhaenyra continues.

As King Aegon II Targaryen (Tom Glynn-Carney) approaches his throne, D'Arcy muses, 'The enemy usurped my throne.'

Rhaenyra peruses a collection of swords before confidently brandishing one.

Meanwhile, at a tense meeting, King Aegon asks as he casually points his knife about to the others, 'What are we going to do about it?'

'Proceed cautiously,' Queen Alicent Hightower (Cooke) recommends sternly.

'F**k dignity!' Aegon suddenly shouts, before adding with a cooler tone, 'I want revenge.'

As soldiers prepare for battle, Daemon is seen musing, 'I did not think they would be so eager to die.'

'The realm's only hope is in a leader strong enough to unite it,' Daemon observes at one point as he rides a dragon.

In a powerful moment, Rhaenyra asks Daemon: 'Do you accept me as your queen and ruler?' A long pause follows.

The trailer teases action-packed battle scenes as the civil war continues.

'War is coming,' Rhaenyra breathlessly observes. 'And neither of us may win.'

Season one of House Of The Dragon premiered on August 21, 2022.

The first episode drew major ratings as it earned a whopping 10million viewers which lead to the season 2 renewal within just week of the premiere episode.

Each of the House of the Dragon Season 1 episodes averaged 29 million viewers in the U.S.

The series is set 200 years before the events of Game of Thrones and is based on George R.R. Martin's Fire & Blood novels.
