George R.R. Martin teases A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms release date

HBO is set to broaden George R. R. Martin‘s universe with a new series titled A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, adapting Martin’s novella series, The Tales of Dunk and Egg. The series recently finished filming its season 1, and the author has been on the set. And he has only good things to say so far about the upcoming show.

George R.R. Martin visited A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms set

George R.R. Martin went on a trip to Europe in the summer, where one of his stops was Belfast in Northern Ireland, where Game of Thrones and its spinoffs have been filmed. Martin wrote on his blog, Not A Blog:

“After Belfast, the next stop on our summer travels was Ashford Meadows, where I’d heard there was a tournament going on. No way I was going to miss that, so off we went. Rumor was that some Targaryen princelings would be attending.

Yes, I am talking about the newest GAME OF THRONES spinoff show. It’s an adaptation of “The Hedge Knight,” the first of my Dunk & Egg stories.”

A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms might release next year

Martin went on to reveal that the title of the show can still change, and the possible release date of the Game of Thrones spinoff. He wrote:

“There were two more after that, “The Sworn Sword” and “The Mystery Knight.” They have all been collected in a book called A KNIGHT OF THE SEVEN KINGDOMS. That’s probably going to be the title of the show as well… unless we go with THE HEDGE KNIGHT. That’s still under discussion. Filming wrapped not long ago, and Ira Parker and his team are now in post, looking toward a debut some time next year. Spring, I am hoping, but that’s just a guess, no date has been set yet.”
