Sneak Peek at the New Game of Thrones Spinoff ‘A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms’

Exciting news for fans of the fantasy genre! Recently, Max teased some of its biggest upcoming shows for 2024 and 2025. Among these was a first look at the new Game of Thrones spinoff, ‘A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms.’

This new series is based on George R.R. Martin‘s ‘Tales of Dunk and Egg.’ The first season adapts the novella titled ‘The Hedge Knight.’ Following that, two more adaptations will follow, known as ‘The Sworn Sword’ and ‘The Mystery Knight.’

The teaser gives viewers a glimpse of Ser Duncan the Tall, affectionately known as Dunk, played by Peter Claffey, alongside his youthful squire, Egg, portrayed by Dexter Sol Ansell.

The series is set about a century before the events of Game of Thrones, following the journeys of these two unlikely heroes as they roam through Westeros. The official description describes them as a young, brave knight and his small yet spirited companion.

The backdrop of ‘A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms’ features a time when the Targaryen family still sits on the Iron Throne, allowing us a peek into a world filled with great adventures and powerful foes, all while the memory of dragons still lingers in the air.

Helming the first three episodes is Owen Harris, known for his work on ‘Black Mirror.’ Meanwhile, Ryan Condal, who worked on ‘House of the Dragon,’ joins the team as an executive producer along with George R.R. Martin, ensuring the series stays true to the rich lore fans love.

A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is expected to make its debut sometime in 2025, but fans will have to wait a bit longer for specific dates. Keep an ear out for more updates!

The quick teaser also displayed some other exciting upcoming series and returning favorites on Max, including ‘The Penguin’ and ‘The Last of Us’ Season 2, promising exciting times ahead for viewers.
