Following the explosive return of Sunfyre in House of the Dragon season three episode seven, the finale is shaping up to be its most action-packed yet. So, be sure to take note of exactly what time you can tune in (especially if you want to avoid spoilers). Rhaenyra (Emma D’Arcy) may have taken back the Iron Throne earlier on in season three, but her reign has been anything but straightforward. Sunfyre’s shock return has changed the balance of power once again, while Ormund’s (James Norton) secret negotiations with Ulf the White (Tom Bennett) suggest another major betrayal could be just around the corner. We know House of the Dragon won’t wrap up until its fourth and final season, but until then, the upcoming finale is set to depict one of the bloodiest conflicts from George R.R. Martin’s Fire & Blood: the Battle of Tumbleton. Credit: HBO If you’ve read the book, you probably already know why this moment has been dreaded/anticipated for years. Westeros is about to be changed forever, and director Nina Lopez-Corrado warned about it as we head into the finale. “I do think you should start refreshing your memories for the Battle of Tumbleton,” she told Entertainment Weekly after episode seven dropped. Lopez-Corrado went on to say, “We do deviate just a little bit in episode seven from what’s originally in the books and, personally, from a character standpoint, what Ryan [Condal, showrunner] and the writers did in terms of that really helped evolve the character storylines from what were in the books. “I know that’s a very controversial thing to say for diehards, but I think some of the storylines that you’re gonna see in seven that’ll carry on into eight were really executed strongly by the writers and also by the actors.” With all that being said, you’re going to want to know exactly when the finale drops so you don’t miss a thing.
