Today at this year’s New York Comic-Con, HBO announced that A knight of the Seven KingdomsThe six-episode first season of S will begin airing on January 18, 2026. Based on Martin’s novel. Tales of Dunk and Egg novels set decades before the events of A song of ice and fire, A knight of the seven kingdoms tells the adventures of Ser Duncan the Great (Peter Claffey) and Prince Aegon Targaryen (Dexter Sol Ansell).
In the recently released trailer, no one really respects Ser Duncan – a humble hedge knight eager to prove his worth and become a well-known figure across the kingdoms. But Aegon sees the great man as a potential ally who could help him get to Ashford in the far Reach. The two make an unusual pair in a land filled with far more formidable knight/squire duos. But the trailer goes some way to explaining how Dunk and Egg are destined to become players in some of the most important events in Westeros history.
The trailer does A knight of the seven kingdoms seems a bit lighter than HBO’s latest Game of Thrones spin-off. But like Dragon HouseThe new series appears to have no shortage of battles and fire-breathing monsters, which will hopefully make it an exciting watch when it debuts next year.
