Take the Black: House of the Dragon begins, Shadow and Bone reviewed

Let’s talk about the new casting info and set pics from House of the Dragon! Also, what do we think of Emilia Clarke joining the MCU and of Netflix’s fantasy epic Shadow and Bone?

Welcome to Take the Black, the only chat show on the internet that dares to discuss important things like dragons, castles, superheroes and space lasers. We have a full program on this week’s show, starting with a thorough review of Netflix’s new Shadow and Bone series (with special guest Amanda Mullen providing the book-readers perspective), and much more. Watch below!

After we render our verdicts on Shadow and Bone, we turn our attention to new developments on the set of HBO’s Game of Thrones prequel House of the Dragon. The biggest new development is that there is now a set!

There was also a lot of Marvel news this week, starting with Emilia Clarke joining the cast of Secret Invasion. We also discuss the latest episode of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier and the trailer for Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings. Finally, I stump for Warrior, a Cinemax show available on HBO Max I should have been watching before now.
