“We are thrilled to be able to deliver new seasons of these two series for the next three years, for the legion of fans of the Game of Thrones universe,” said Francesca Orsi, executive vp HBO Programming and head of HBO drama series and films. “Together, House of the Dragon and A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms reveal just how expansive and richly imagined George R.

And this summer, House of the Dragon is set to ignite once again with some of its most epic battles yet.”
