A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms season 2: what we know so far about the new Game of Thrones show's return

  • HBO confirmed Season 2 will adapt The Sworn Sword, renewed in November 2025, with six half-hour episodes and Peter Claffey and Dexter Sol Ansell reprising their roles for a 2027 premiere.
  • Consultation with George R.R. Martin helped shape the adaptation, as producers say they will be 100% faithful to the novellas and added about 50% more character material.
  • Set roughly a year and a half after the first story, Standfast in the Reach faces a drought that triggers a bitter land dispute between Lady Rohanne Webber and Ser Eustace Osgrey, culminating in a deadly duel.
  • The adaptation deepens Westeros mythos by linking Lady Rohanne Webber's lineage to the Lannisters, with two of three Dunk and Egg books to be adapted after Season 2, HBO's three-season focus.
  • Ira Parker plans multiple future returns with ten‑year jumps for Egg, saying fan response will determine long-term expansion, while Season 2 themes include loyalty and fathers and sons.
