Game of Thrones Spinoff Delayed to Winter 2026

HBO's Game of Thrones spin-off, 'A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms,' originally slated for a late 2025 premiere, has been officially delayed to winter 2026, as announced during Warner Bros. Discovery’s recent upfront. The six-episode series adapts George R.R. Martin’s 'The Hedge Knight' and follows Ser Duncan the Tall and Egg, set about a century before the original series. The delay leaves 2025 without new Thrones content, while 'House of the Dragon' season 3 is currently in production. HBO executives describe the upcoming show as a more intimate, smaller-scale production, and a three-season run is planned if the first season proves successful. George R.R. Martin has praised the adaptation's faithfulness to his work. Fans must wait until 2026 for the next chapter in Westeros.
