A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is a Game of Thrones prequel series currently in production that takes place over 90 years before its predecessor. It traces the adventures of a knight as noble as he is humble, Ser Duncan “Dunk” the Tall, and his feisty young squire Egg, who will one day be King Aegon V Targaryen. Their travels throughout Westeros touch on knighthood, honour, and adventure at a time when the Targaryens ruled and dragons were becoming a distant memory. The series offered the chance for a character-driven, more intimate story, with Westerosi intrigue and charm.

The series is scheduled to debut on Jiohotstar in January 2026.

Trailer and plot

Though we've yet to see a full trailer, early footage of the show has arrived on HBO's promotional material. The story arc has Dunk and Egg wandering through tournaments, interacting with lords and peasants, and facing challenges that would test their loyalty and bravery.
