A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is an HBO fantasy series based on George R.R. Martin’s Dunk and Egg novellas, set about 100 years before Game of Thrones.
The show follows Ser Duncan the Tall (Dunk), an honest, lowborn hedge knight, and his diminutive squire, Egg (Prince Aegon Targaryen), as they travel Westeros.
The first season premiered on HBO and HBO Max on January 18.

A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms showrunner Ira Parker recently told The Hollywood Reporter that the next season will still be six short episodes.
“I think the scope will be same, maybe even smaller,” Parker said. “The budget has stayed the same, but everything is more expensive due to inflation.”
