Event Overview
HBO held a content showcase in London on December 3, 2025, where executives and creators discussed upcoming series. HBO Chairman and CEO Casey Bloys highlighted the 2025-26 slate, emphasizing a global lens for the programming. The event focused on building anticipation for new and returning shows, including fantasy and drama genres.
'A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms' Details
Showrunner Ira Parker described the series as an "up-ramp" for viewers new to the Game of Thrones universe, offering a lighter entry into Westeros. The adaptation of George R.R. Martin's Dunk and Egg novellas stars Dexter Sol Ansell as Egg and Peter Claffey as Ser Duncan the Tall. Season 1 debuts on January 18, 2026, and HBO renewed it before the premiere. Parker noted its more intimate scale compared to Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon, joking about the budget: "Our budget is a reflection of Dunk, who comes from nothing." He added, "We take you in on a lighter, more friendly path to Westeros," and praised the leads, calling Ansell "the greatest child actor in the world" and Claffey for his joyful portrayal of the dopey knight.
'Euphoria' Season 3 Update
Bloys announced that Euphoria Season 3 will launch in April 2026, refining earlier spring plans. Showrunner Sam Levinson discussed the season's five-year time jump, with characters navigating life beyond school. "The stakes are a bit higher than they were in the past as the consequences are real," Levinson said, drawing from personal experiences with addiction. The series stars Zendaya and Sydney Sweeney.
