The world of Game of Thrones continues to expand. HBO has ordered a new Game of Thrones prequel, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms: The Hedge Knight, to series. It was revealed as part of Warner Bros. Discovery officially announcing its streaming service now called Max. (HBO Max and Discovery+ have merged.) “A century before the events of Game of Thrones, two unlikely heroes wandered Westeros… a young, naïve but courageous knight, Ser Duncan the Tall, and his diminutive squire, Egg,” reads the logline. “Set in an age when the Targaryen line still holds the Iron Throne and the memory of the last dragon has not yet passed from living memory, great destinies, powerful foes, and dangerous exploits all await these improbable and incomparable friends.” A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms will be written by Game of Thrones author George R.R. Martin and Ira Parker. They will executive produce with Ryan Condal and Vince Gerardis.
