‘A Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms’ First Look Video Released
Max announced a number of upcoming new series. ‘A Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms’ is one of them. The first look of the series introduces Peter Claffey as Ser Duncan the Tall. And among other characters seen in the clip, Ser Duncan is ‘Dunk’ from the duo of ‘Dunk and Egg’.
The series is based on the events of George R.R. Martin’s series of Dunk and Egg novellas. Moreover, the first season is the adaptation of the first novella ‘The Hedge Knight’. Subsequent seasons will be followed by adaptations of ‘The Sworn Sword’ and ‘The Mystery Knight.’ The series will be set almost a century before the events of ‘Game Of Thrones’ but after the events of ‘House Of The Dragon’.
Ryan Condal, co-creator of ‘House Of The Dragon’ is also acting as one of the executive producers of the show. He told Entertainment Weekly that the upcoming spin-off concerns the “small folk who suffer at the hands of the Game of Thrones as it’s played by the nobles”.
