What it is: The Hedge Knight is the first Dunk and Egg story by George R.R. Martin, adapted as a Game of Thrones universe spin-off tentatively titled A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms.

HBO has indicated that this project is in development with a likely spring-to-summer window being a target in various updates, though exact dates have not been officially finalized.[3][4][2]
