‘A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms’ Season 2 Budget Update Raises the Stakes

A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms might not follow the latest production model HBO has implemented, but the way Season 2 is being budgeted shows some similarities. Showrunner Ira Parker has revealed that the next installment of this Game of Thrones spin-off will not only carry the same episode count, but also the same "modest budget." This now adds a creative challenge, especially as Season 2 will be based on the next Tales of Dunk and Egg novella, The Sworn Sword.
