A new Game of Thrones spin-off series has been officially revealed. The official Game of Thrones Twitter/X account gave fans the first look at the show titled, A Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms.
This upcoming GOT prequel is based on George R. R. Martin’s novel The Hedge Knight. Martin is an executive producer of the show and is involved in the writing of A Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms.
The official image shows Peter Claffey as Ser Duncan the Tall, one of the protagonists of the upcoming show. The official logline for the show, as per Deadline, states: “A century before the events of Game of Thrones, two unlikely heroes wandered Westeros… a young, naïve but courageous knight, Ser Duncan the Tall, and his diminutive squire, Egg.”
A Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms is currently in production, and it is expected to release in late 2025, per Deadline. The Game of Thrones prequel will be released on Max, HBO’s streaming service.
As for other characters, the confirmed cast includes Finn Bennett as Aerion Targaryen, Bertie Carvel as Baelor Targaryen, and Sam Spruell as Maekar Targaryen. Moreover, Tanzyn Crawford is confirmed to play Tanselle while Daniel Ings will portray Ser Lyonel Baratheon.
Sarah Adina Smith will be directing three episodes of A Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms, and the show will feature 6 episodes in total.
With a late 2025 expected release date, fans have to wait a while. In the meantime, House of the Dragon Season 2 has now premiered on Max, so there’s ample stuff to chew on for those hungry for more Game of Thrones.
