Overview

  • Ryan Condal confirmed the endpoint during an Escape Hatch podcast appearance in late December.
  • Season 3 finished filming in late October, and the team is reviewing rough cuts and early material.
  • Condal calls Season 3 the most "gigantic" yet, describing a creatively energizing but physically exhausting shoot.
  • HBO has not announced premiere dates, with reports expecting Season 3 in summer 2026 and projecting a 2028 debut for Season 4 based on the series’ two-year cadence.
  • HBO’s broader Westeros slate continues as A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms premieres January 18 with a second season already ordered.
