Overview
- The six-episode season runs about 30 minutes per installment and rolls out weekly starting Monday, Jan. 19 on HBO Max.
- Drawn from George R. R. Martin’s Hedge Knight stories, the narrative sits roughly 90 years before Game of Thrones and after House of the Dragon.
- Peter Claffey leads as Ser Duncan the Tall with Dexter Sol Ansell as Egg, introducing a smaller, character-focused pairing.
- The series emphasizes an intimate, often humorous tone with no dragons or White Walkers, centering everyday lives over epic spectacle.
- For launch, HBO Max secured the original Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon catalogs, with access reported at €5.99 per month with advertising.
