Popular on Variety “A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms” stars Peter Claffey as Ser Duncan “Dunk” the Tall and Dexter Sol Ansell as Egg. The show is set roughly 100 years before the events of the mothership show. It is based on George RR Martin’s “Tales of Dunk and Egg” novellas. The show received strong critical acclaim upon its debut, with the first season holding a 94% critical approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Both Claffey and Ansell earned praise for their performances, while “Game of Thrones” fans also took to the show’s more intimate storylines, shorter episode runtimes, and its shorter, six-episode season. Martin co-created the series with Ira Parker, with both serving as executive producers. Parker is also the showrunner. Additional executive producers include Sarah Bradshaw, Owen Harris, Ryan Condal and Vince Gerardis.
