Geeks, be ready to dust off your chainmail and lower your expectations for personal hygiene, because we’re going back to Westeros! HBO just dropped the first trailer for A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, and it looks amazing!

Set about 50 years after House of the Dragon, this new chapter trades dragons for dusty roads and royal politics for old-fashioned chivalry. The story follows Duncan the Tall (Peter Claffey), a humble knight with more courage than coin, and his squire Egg (Dexter Sol Ansell), who just so happens to be hiding a secret that could shake the realm harder than a Lannister family reunion.

Showrunner Ira Parker told fans at New York Comic Con that this six-episode series focuses less on world-ending wars and more on the kind of personal stories that make Westeros feel real, like knights trying to live up to their vows while surviving tournaments, taverns, and the occasional moral crisis. Think less “Red Wedding,” more “mud, honor, and unexpected feels.”

And while dragons are long gone, Parker says their memory still lingers: “This is a world that remembers dragons, and feels a little stranger because of it.”

With House of the Dragon returning the same year, 2026 is shaping up to be a full-on Westeros feast. And if this trailer’s any indication, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is ready to win our hearts… or die trying!

A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms premieres January 2026 on HBO.
