Fans of the Game of Thrones television franchise have a big new reason to be excited, as it has officially been confirmed that the second spinoff series, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, is coming to HBO in January 2026.
The premiere date window was confirmed by HBO CEO Casey Bloys in a new interview with TheWrap after the 2025 Emmy Awards.
During the conversation, the interviewer commented on the absence of any Game of Thrones television shows in this year's Emmys, saying, "This was the first awards season in a while where HBO didn't have a Game of Thrones show in contention, and two are on the way for next."
They then asked Bloys, "When can we expect those shows to arrive?"
Luckily for fans of the popular franchise, Bloys was able to provide an update for the second Game of Thrones television spinoff, telling the publication, "A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms will be in January, and then House of the Dragon will probably be just outside this Emmy cycle." The latter half of the comment refers to the upcoming third season of the first spinoff series.
Bloys also briefly commented on his hopes for the success of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, answering a question about his wishes for the 2026 Emmy Awards as he said, "I'm hopeful [we] get some recognition for A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms."
"I'm hopeful that we'll have a good year. Never count on anything — you never know which way it breaks with the Emmys, but I feel good about the slate that we've got coming," he went on.
A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms will premiere sometime in January, and the first season is expected to have six episodes. The show was originally supposed to premiere in late 2025, but it was delayed.
A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms Is Another Prequel To Game of Thrones
Like House of the Dragon, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is also a prequel to the original series, Game of Thrones. The story is set around a century before the events of Game of Thrones, with the tale following a hedge knight named Ser Duncan the Tall, also known as Dunk, played by Peter Claffey, and Prince Aegon Targaryen, also known as Egg, played by Dexter Sol Ansell.
Other actors in the cast include Finn Bennett as Prince Aerion "Brightflame" Targaryen, Bertie Carvel as Prince Baelor "Breakspear" Targaryen, Tanzyn Crawford as Tanselle, Daniel Ings as Ser Lyonel Baratheon, and Sam Spruell as Prince Maekar Targaryen, among others.
