Will There Be ‘A Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms’ Season 2? Here’s The Exciting News

The series drew nearly 13 million U.S. viewers per episode, prompting HBO Max to greenlight Season 2 for a 2027 release amid strong audience demand.

  • Last month, HBO Max announced 'A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms' renewal; Francesca Orsi, HBO's head of drama, was `thrilled`, and showrunner Ira Parker confirmed cameras are rolling for a 2027 release.
  • Six weeks after the premiere, fans fell for the underdog pairing of Dunk and Egg, fueling popularity as the first season breathed new life into the franchise, earning another installment last year.
  • Showrunner Ira Parker said filming for Season 2, adapting The Sworn Sword, faces higher costs due to the drought setting and must shoot in warmer locations, despite the budget remaining the same.
  • The finale creates immediate tensions: Egg is missing from the Targaryen caravan while Maekar both blames Dunk and asks him to take Egg as his squire, soon. Dunk even considers murdering Aerion, highlighting darker stakes for season two.
  • With Season 3 already green-lit, HBO plans to adapt The Mystery Knight and extend the Dunk and Egg story, while the AKotNK title card may confuse viewers about a retitle.
