From the world of Westeros comes a new half-hour original drama—an endearing tale that follows the unlikely adventures of an unexpected duo. Set a century before the events of Game of Thrones, the six-episode season follows two improbable heroes roaming Westeros: Ser Duncan the Tall, a brave but untested young knight, and his small but sharp-witted squire, Egg.
In an era when the Targaryens still rule from the Iron Throne and the memory of dragons has yet to fade, great destinies, formidable enemies, and perilous exploits await these mismatched yet inseparable companions.

The Prince
Thursday 1 January, on HBO Max
Stream every episode (12 episodes)
The Prince, created by Gary Janetti, is an animated comedy that satirically imagines the inner workings of the royal family through the eyes of a fictionalised Prince George, the youngest heir to the throne. From spilling royal “tea” to skewering palace protocol, George offers a mischievous and unfiltered look at his family, their followers, and the monarchy at large.
With a star-studded voice cast, the series delivers an outlandishly funny, warm, and singular parody of life inside Buckingham Palace.
Janetti leads the ensemble as Prince George, joined by Orlando Bloom as Prince Harry, Alan Cumming as George’s loyal butler Owen, Frances de la Tour as Queen Elizabeth, Lucy Punch as Kate Middleton, Condola Rashad as Meghan Markle, Iwan Rheon as Prince William, Dan Stevens as Prince Charles, and Sophie Turner as Princess Charlotte.
