RONCALLI HALL — Following the massive success of the recent Game of Thrones spinoff, House of the Dragon, sources say that HBO plans to continue its series of spinoffs with the all-new House of Roncastle.
House of Roncastle is to be a 10-episode-long tale of the illustrious Roncalli Hall, a safe haven for neglected and worthless sophomores of Boston College.
The Classic was provided with a one-minute teaser trailer of the series, which will soon be available to the public.
The teaser opens up with an overhead shot of a distressed Nick Calli (Pete Davidson) tossing and turning and sweating profusely in his bed. It is unclear whether this is alluding to the absence of an AC in his room or to the weight of his great-grandfather’s legacy on his shoulders. Indeed, his great-grandfather was Ron Calli, the fierce revolutionary and founder of Roncastle, a fortress for the loners and betas of the Boston College world. Nick looks up at his ceiling as he hears his late great grandfather’s voice, voiced by Morgan Freeman, telling him to “fucking please clean [his] side of the room.”
The teaser then cuts to what is presumed to be Nick Calli’s romantic partner, Zoe Nein-Tea (Miranda Cosgrove) from the Royal House of 90, ascending up the snowy steps as she makes the treacherous journey from 90 to Roncalli. The voice of the late Ron Calli then booms, “Roncastle produces men that are actually worth the journey.”
Showrunners claim that a rousing scene depicting the precarious climb up to Upper will have viewers buzzing, as it will rival the epic nature of iconic episodes such as the “Battle of the Bastards.”
We also get a small clip of Nick’s roommate, Sir Chadley of Roncastle (Michael Cera), who screams “IT’S FUCKING GAMEDAY BABY, DILLY DILLY BITCHES!” as he aggressively chugs his 8th Bud Light of the morning before preparing for the 45-minute march to the tailgates on the Lawn of Maloney.
The teaser ends with a shot of Nick walking into his fifty-person single-shower communal bathroom, only to open the shower curtain and exclaim, “To hell with this cursed place!”In classic Thrones nature, we are left on this cliffhanger, only able to imagine what horrors have unfolded in the castle.
