A few weeks ago, HBO released not one, but two dueling trailers to help fans show their allegiance to the fierce succession battle in the upcoming "House of Dragons" Season 2: the "Black" version, which focuses on the rightful heir, Rainira Targaryen (Emma Darcy), and the Dragonstone gang, The "Green" version, which focuses on Rhaenyra's half-brother, King Aegon II Targaryen (Tom Glynn-Kearney) and the King's Landing gang.

And now it seems that the "HOTD" actors themselves are publicly and passionately announcing their allegiances in a new feature length version, ahead of the second season premiering on HBO and Max on Sunday, June 16. If a recap is in order, in the final moments of the show's first season, Aemon Targaryen (Ewan Mitchell), Aegon II's uncle and ally, shockingly murdered Rainila's young son Lucerys (Eliot Grifolt) during a dramatic dragon chase, and the civil war was largely movement.

Unsurprisingly, Glynn-Kearney is adamantly pro-Team Green to take over the throne, and jokes in the new "Defend Your Council" clip: in the new "Defend Your Council" clip, "The castle lease has my name is on it!" he jokes. But on-screen rival Emma Darcy is betting all her money on Team Black: "We have madness on our side. Plus we have a strong naval force thanks to the Velarion fleet."

Steve Toussaint, who plays Lord Corliss Velarion, called Team Black, appointed directly by the late King Viserys (Paddy Considine), "the rightful heir to the throne," adding humorously, "Just generally good-looking." It was equally funny when Eve Best, who plays Princess Lenys Targaryen in the "Game of Thrones" prequel series, said of Team Green: "Guys, they're just noobs!"

Ewan Mitchell pointed to the bullying his character suffered at the hands of his nephews as a reason for his own loyalty to Team Green, and lead actor Matt Smith, who plays Damon Targaryen on the show, was ready to defend his on-screen niece and slash wife, Lenila He was fully prepared ("We have the pedigree, don't we? We're thoroughbreds.").

Fabian Frankel, who plays Sir Christon Cole in "HOTD," gave a diplomatic "no comment" when asked which he would choose. The most succinct response, however, came from actress Olivia Cooke, who plays Rainila's former best friend and mother of Aegon II.
