Overview
- The six-episode season ended with the finale, “The Morrow,” airing Feb. 22 at 10 p.m. ET/PT on HBO and streaming on HBO Max.
- Ira Parker says the series will largely track George R. R. Martin’s novellas and confirms the story will head to Dorne in Season 2.
- Reporting diverges on which novella is next, with some outlets citing The Sworn Sword and others pointing to The Mystery Knight, even as Parker signals fidelity to the books.
- HBO renewed the series before premiere and projects a 2027 release for Season 2, with the compact six-episode format expected to continue.
- Cast returns remain uncertain, as Maekar actor Sam Spruell says he does not expect to appear next season, and strong viewership and reviews have underpinned the fast turnaround.
