Peter Claffey and Dexter Sol Ansell in “A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms”
Epic fantasy author George R.R. Martin returns to television this new year with “A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms,” premiering Sunday, Jan. 18, on HBO and HBO Max. Set 100 years before Martin’s hit saga “Game of Thrones,” the six-episode series stars Irish actor Peter Claffey (“Bad Sisters”) as Ser Duncan the Tall, a knight who wanders Westeros with his squire, Egg (Dexter Sol Ansell, “Emmerdale Farm”), during the reign of the Targaryen dynasty.
Tall tales of the ‘Seven Kingdoms’ GOT prequel renewed before premiere
By Dana Simpson TV Media
N
early 15 years after “Game of Thrones” premiered on HBO, fans of the literary source material are (not so) patiently awaiting the sixth book in the would-be seven-book series. And although many seem to have given up hope that George R.R. Martin, the 77-year-old author of the A Song of Ice and Fire series, will complete the series at all, there is still plenty of interest in the expansive world he has created to date. The newest property in Martin’s television universe is “A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms,” which premieres Sunday, Jan. 18, on HBO and HBO Max. A prequel to “Game of Thrones,” “A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms” follows Ser Duncan the Tall, a.k.a. Dunk, a statuesque knight in Westeros during the reign of the Targaryen dynasty. “A century before the events of ‘Game of Thrones,’ two unlikely heroes wandered Westeros: a young, naive but courageous knight, Ser Duncan the Tall, and his diminutive squire, Egg,” reads the logline per Warner Bros. Discovery, HBO’s parent company. “Set in an age when the Targaryen line still holds the Iron Throne, and the memory of the last dragon has not yet passed from living memory, great destinies, powerful foes, and dangerous exploits all await these improbable and incomparable friends.” The leading role is filled by Irish actor Peter Claffey, who stands six feet five inches tall and who has previously starred in the Hulu horror series “Wreck,” Apple TV’s “Bad Sisters” and “Vikings: Valhalla” on Netflix, to name a few. Claffey, meanwhile, shares the bulk of his screen time with 11-year-old Dexter Sol Ansell (“The Midwich Cuckoos”) in the role of Egg, a bald-headed young boy whom Ser Duncan takes on as a squire throughout his travels. The series is an adaptation of Martin’s 1998 novella “The Hedge Knight,” in which Dunk makes his transition from squire to knight following the death of his mentor Ser Arlan of Pennytree (Danny Webb, “Valkyrie,” 2008). Determined to do his chivalric teacher proud and prove himself worthy of the title of “Ser,” Dunk adopts Ser Arlan’s equipment as his own and travels to Ashford to complete the quest they had begun together — a tournament which would prove to be one of the most discussed upsets in the history of the Seven Kingdoms. Joining Claffey and Sol Ansell are Daniel Ings (“Lovesick”) as Ser Lyonel Baratheon; Bertie Carvel (“Dagliesh”) as Prince Baelor Targaryen; Sam Spruell (“Fargo”) as Prince Maekar Targaryen; Shaun Thomas (“Ladhood”) as Ser Raymun Fossoway; Finn Bennett (“True Detective”)

Acknowledging in jest however, that “this one may not satisfy you.” that he and Ansell are likely to be “getting “There’s a huge fight scene here, as exciting spray tans” ahead of filming Season 2, Claffey as anyone could ask for,” shared Martin, “but has set expectations for a trip to hot, arid Dorne there are no dragons this time around, no huge in the coming year or so. battles, no white walkers. ...

universe and trouble abounds in the Seven Kingdoms. Hopefully Dunk and Claffey alike have taken the CCXP25 advice of Fabien Frankel, who plays Kingsguard knight Ser Criston Cole in “House of the Dragon.” “If I could offer one piece of advice, it would be this,” Frankel counseled during Claffey and Ansell’s panel introduction, “Choose your alliances wisely, stay alert ... [and] remember, there’s no honor without a bit of ‘Fire and Blood’.” “A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms” premieres Sunday, Jan. 18, on HBO and HBO Max. Martin’s other HBO series, “House of the Dragon,” returns for a third season this summer.

Pension pilfering on Prime Screen Scramble Sophie Turner leads Amazon, Drama Republic thriller
By Dana Simpson TV Media
T
heft is always scary for someone involved. While the orchestrators are likely scared to fail and wind up in a prison cell, the terror driving theft generally sits with the targeted party and, of course, those caught in the middle. Fortunately for the average North American victim of theft, their stolen items are often status symbols or “expendable” objects, such as a car, jewelry or petty cash. But what happens when someone targets the pension you have spent your life’s work accruing? “Steal,” a co-production between Amazon MGM Studios and Drama Republic premiering Wednesday, Jan. 21, on Prime Video, faces largescale pension theft head-on, as two pension fund investment workers are caught in the middle of a terrifying and unthinkable heist. Described as a “uniquely thrilling ride” by Amazon MGM Studios head of television Vernon Sanders, “Steal” is a six-episode series starring “Game of Thrones” alum Sophie Turner as Zara, “an average office worker who just so happens to be caught up in the heist of the century during an otherwise normal day on the job” (per Collider). When a band of thieves storm the London office of Lochmill Capital and begin making demands for money, Zara and her best friend, Luke, played by “See” and “Saltburn” (2023) star Archie Madekwe, are unceremoniously pulled into the heist and tasked with helping the armed intruders from the inside. “Made to do the bidding of the criminals,” Collider reporter Ryan O’Rourke writes in a Nov. 18 article, “they’re left to question ‘who would drain billions of pounds from the pensions of ordinary people and why.’” On the case is DCI Rhys, portrayed by Jacob Fortune-Lloyd of “Medici” and “The Queen’s Gambit” fame. Although Rhys remains a dedicated police officer who is determined to solve the mystery behind the dangerous and heartless crime, his own personal darkness adds a level of complication to the story. Having recently relapsed back into addiction, Rhys’ own money troubles slowly creep to the forefront, causing him to consider a few morally questionable acts along the way. “As [Rhys] struggles with a recent relapse into gambling addiction,” the official plot synopsis reads, “he must keep his own money problems hidden while navigating the secret agendas and competing interests at the heart of this far-reaching crime.” Joining Turner, Madekwe and Fortune-Lloyd across all six episodes are Ellie James (“The Winter King”) as DI Ellie Lloyd, Rhys’ partner on the case; Harry Michell (“Yesterday,” 2019) as Milo; Jonathan Slinger (“A Knight’s Tale,” 2001) as Lon-
Ellie James and Jacob Fortune-Lloyd in “Steal” don; Thomas Larkin (“Sexy Nails”) as Wayne; Sarah Belcher (“Brexit,” 2019) as Kate; Tara Summers (“Boston Legal”) as Sophia; and Andrew Howard (“Limitless,” 2011) as “Sniper.” Andrew Koji (“Warrior”), Diana Bermudez (“The Ark”), Yusra Warsama (“Castle Rock”), Tomisin Ajani (“Masters of the Air”), Eloise Thomas (“Dope Girls”), Kadiesha Belgrave (“The Stolen Girl”), Spike Leighton (“1917,” 2019) and Julianna Kurokawa (“Heads of State,” 2025) also star in the series. Written by novelist S.A. Nikias — who is also known by his full name, Sotiris Nikias, and his pen name, Ray Celestin — “Steal” was initially titled “Haven.” Although the reason for the change is unknown (perhaps it was to differentiate it from the 2010 Syfy series of the same name), the series has settled into its identity as “Steal” and Nikias has likewise thrived in his first-ever screenwriting role. “His roller-coasting, nail-biting and funny scripts have quite rightly attracted a tremendous cast and top-tier creative team,” executive producers Rebecca De Souza (“The Confessions of Franny Langton”) and Greg Brenman (“Peaky Blinders”) said in a press statement, as reported by Good Housekeeping. “We couldn’t be more delighted.” Shyam Popat (“The Day of the Jackal”) and Poppy Cogan (“A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder”) are co-credited as series writers alongside Nikias, while director Sam Miller (“I May Destroy You”) serves as an executive producer alongside De Souza and Brenman. Hettie Macdonald (“Howard’s End”), meanwhile, shares directing duties with Miller and Nuala O’Leary (“Strike Back”). “This attention-grabbing series, written by S.A. Nikias, is a uniquely thrilling ride and serves as an ideal addition to round out our Pan-English slate implemented by Rola Bauer and her team,” Sanders released in a statement. He added that “Steal” has “all the ingredients for a gripping, addictive, entertaining story for our global customers to enjoy.”

WHAT’S NEW ON HULU “The Beauty”
In this world, perfection is deadly. A limited series based on the comic books by Haun and Jason A. Hurley, “The Beauty” premieres its first three episodes Wednesday, Jan. 21, on Hulu. FBI agents Cooper Madsen (Evan Peters, “Kick-Ass,” 2010) and Jordan Bennett (Rebecca Hall, “The Listeners”) are dispatched to Paris to investigate a series of deaths when supermodels begin dying under brutal, mysterious circumstances. As they dig deeper, they discover a sexually transmitted virus that turns ordinary people into images of physical perfection … but at a horrifying cost. Their investigation puts them in direct conflict with The Corporation (Ashton Kutcher, “Killers,” 2010), a tech billionaire who secretly created a “miracle” drug known as The Beauty and will stop at nothing to protect his trillion-dollar empire, including unleashing his deadly enforcer, The Assassin (Anthony Ramos, “Hamilton,” 2020). As the infection spreads, a lost outsider (Jeremy Pope, “Hollywood”) is swept into the fallout, while the agents race from Paris to Venice, Rome and New York to stop a global catastrophe. From creators Ryan Murphy (“Glee”) and Matthew Hodgson (“9-1-1”), “The Beauty” guest stars Amelia Gray Hamlin (“Rachel & the TreeSchoolers”), Bella Hadid (“Yellowstone”), Nicola Peltz Beckham (“Holidate,” 2020) and more. Executive produced by Murphy, Hodgson and Eric Gitter (“Extraction,” 2020).
WHAT’S NEW ON APPLE TV “Drops of God” - Season 2
The world’s rarest wines hide secrets older than time. Adapted from the New York Times bestselling Japanese manga, “Drops of God” returns with Season 2 Wednesday, Jan. 21, on Apple TV. Fleur Geffrier (“Rivages”) and Tomohisa Yamashita (“The Head”) return as siblings Camille and Issei as they face their most dangerous quest yet: uncovering the origin of the world’s greatest wine — a mystery so profound that even their legendary father, Alexandre Leger (Stanley Weber, “The Head”), couldn’t solve it. “What begins as a pursuit of legacy becomes a search for truth that spans continents and centuries,
Rebecca Hall and Evan Peters in “The Beauty” unearthing forgotten histories, hidden rivalries and secrets buried for generations” (per Apple TV). As their search pushes them to the farthest corners of the world, Camille and Issei must decide how much they’re willing to sacrifice … and the choices they make could either shatter their bond as siblings or destroy them both. Created by Quoc Dang Tran (“Marianne”), “Drops of God” also stars Tom Wozniczka (“Slow Horses”), Makiko Watanabe (“Love Exposure,” 2008) and Satoshi Nikaido (“Babel,” 2006), with Jean Luc Berlot (“Pacific Fear,” 2024) serving as an executive producer.
WHAT’S NEW ON NETFLIX “Skyscraper Live”
Alex Honnold (“Arctic Ascent With Alex Honnold”) takes climbing to thrilling new heights in “Skyscraper Live,” which Netflix livestreams Friday, Jan. 23. For the first time, the world’s most daring free solo climber tackles a man-made giant: Taipei 101. Rising 1,667 feet above the streets of Taiwan, the glass-and-steel skyscraper offers no ropes, no safety net and no room for error. In a shift from the granite walls that made him famous in the 2018 Oscarwinning documentary “Free Solo,” this is Honnold’s most unpredictable challenge yet, with the event directed by Joe DeMaio (“Total Request Live”) and executive produced by Al Berman (“The Marriage Ref”), alongside Honnold, Grant Mansfield (“A Real Bug’s Life”), Alan Eyres (“The World According to Jeff Goldblum”) and Jonathan Retseck (“The Climb”).

The series follows a group of 10 fun-loving housemates who take over a lake house in Kelowna, British Columbia, for a wild, unforgettable summer. Produced by Insight Productions, the cast includes Christopher Brown, known for his “confidence, quick wit and chaotic charm” (per Paramount+); Gizelle Baugh, a lover of “anime, bikinis and unapologetically outspoken TikToks”; Bauer Swystun, Toronto’s “golden retriever with abs and attitude”; Ethan Maynard, who is determined to “party hard and leave his mark”; and Lila Romanin, instantly recognizable for her “oversized hoops and iconic one-liners.” Joined by Emmy Sharpe, Isaiah Crawford, Emmett Watson, Keyaira Snow and Ryleigh Gregory, the housemates dive headfirst into secret hookups, messy breakups and next-day regrets — proving this Kelowna summer is anything but ordinary.

championship bouts featuring some of the sport’s biggest names. In the main event, lightweight superstars Justin Gaethje (“The Naked Gun,” 2025), a former interim champion and BMF titleholder, meets fan favorite Paddy “The Baddy” Pimblett (“Countdown to UFC”) in an interim UFC lightweight title fight with major divisional stakes. The co-main event marks the highly anticipated return of Amanda Nunes (“UFC on Fox”), the UFC Hall of Famer and widely regarded as the greatest women’s fighter of all time, as she challenges reigning women’s bantamweight champion Kayla Harrison (“Professional Fighters League”). With 26 fighters set to compete, “UFC 324” promises elite matchups, high drama and a night designed to shape the future of multiple divisions. Produced by Eden Rosen (“UFC on ABC”) and Dmitry Saltykovsky (“UFC on ESPN”).
WHAT’S NEW ON MGM+ “The Hillside Strangler”
Premiering Sunday, Jan. 19, on MGM+, “The Hillside Strangler” is a four-part true crime docuseries that revisits the grisly string of murders that made late-1970s Los Angeles the serial murder capital of the world. At the center of the terror were cousins Kenneth Bianchi and Angelo Buono, who abducted, raped and killed a dozen women and girls, leaving their bodies displayed on hillsides and igniting the largest manhunt in Los Angeles’ violent history. Led by relentless homicide detective Frank Salerno (“The Greatest Crimes Of All Time”), the investigation ultimately exposed the killers and culminated in the longest criminal trial in U.S. history. Now, Salerno returns to the story that defined his career — and for the first time in over 40 years, convicted killer Kenneth Bianchi speaks on camera from prison. Through interviews and chilling archival footage, director Peter Logreco’s (“Kids Behind Bars: Life or Parole”) “The Hillside Strangler” unpacks a case that reshaped law enforcement and haunts Los Angeles to this day. LoGreco, Eli Holzman (“We’re Here”), Aaron Saidman (“Selena + Chef”) and Tim Walsh (“Chicago P.D.”) serve as executive producers.

Q&A
hollywood
By Adam Thomlison TV Media
Q: I haven’t seen Ed O’Neill in anything since “Modern Family” wrapped. What’s he up to now? A: Ed O’Neill has done exactly three things since his hit sitcom “Modern Family” ended in 2020, and they couldn’t be much more different from each other. First, he did a supporting role (but big enough to make the poster) in the indie feature “The Last Shift” (2020), a quiet, heartwarming dramedy that didn’t get much attention. Four years passed before his next project, the more prestigious and high-profile “Clipped,” an FX miniseries about the downfall of L.A. Clippers owner Donald Sterling (O’Neill). Then, just a couple of months ago came his oddest choice: He had a supporting role in the
Q: I saw a video the other day of Dolly Parton and Sylvester Stallone singing together. Was that real or was I tricked by AI? A: This is an excellent question that speaks to a deep modern problem: With the development of artificial intelligence, which can make hyper-realistic fake images of just about anything, are we now unable to experience wonder? Specifically, in this case, the wonder of 1984 musical comedy “Rhinestone”? Prepare to be amazed, because country music legend Dolly Parton (“9 to 5,” 1980) really did star in this movie, in which she turned a stubborn New York cab driver, played by Sylvester Stallone (“Rocky,” 1976), into a singer. And yes, the duets were real. Sure, it got a pile of Golden Raspberry nominations for worst movie, worst actor and so on. And sure, Stallone has said that he regrets making it. But that’s beside the point: The fact is it happened, and that’s incredible. It’s worth noting that Parton, for her part, is typically gracious about it. She’s said she thought the soundtrack was some of her best work, and she rerecorded one of the songs, “What a Heartache,” twice. She sums up “Rhinestone” in her autobiography, “Dolly: My Life and Other Unfinished Business,” as a failed experiment. “I guess the public didn’t want to see Sylvester Stallone do Sylvester Stallone and Dolly Parton star in “Rhinestone” comedy — or see me do Sylvester Stallone.”

first season of “All’s Fair,” the critically detested legal drama starring celebrity heiress Kim Kardashian. O’Neill is poised to have a busier next couple of years. He has three projects underway right now, though the most exciting one may never actually happen. It was reported, to much excitement, back in 2022 that he would be returning to his star-making role, the sarcastic and miserable Al Bundy, in an animated reboot of the Fox sitcom “Married... With Children.” A year later, his co-star, Christina Applegate (“Bad Moms,” 2016), who has also committed to return, gave an update saying it was still in development. But nothing’s officially been heard since. Meanwhile, O’Neill just reportedly started filming a new big-screen film, “Bad Day,” an ensemble comedy led by Cameron Diaz (“Charlie’s Angels,” 2000). There’s no word on a release for that one. He’ll also appear as himself in “Gracie,” a documentary series about the Gracie family of martial arts fame. (He actually has a black belt in jiujitsu, which he earned under the Gracies’ instruction.) Q: Is Kurt Russell going to be returning to “Monarch: Legacy of Monsters”? A: Fortunately, the space-time shenanigans built into Apple TV’s hit series “Monarch: Legacy of Monsters” mean that I can confirm, without spoiling anything from the first season, that Kurt
Russell (“Escape From New York,” 1981) will be back for Season 2. He is, by far, the biggest actor involved in the show — followed by his son, Wyatt Russell (“Thunderbolts*,” 2025), who plays a younger version of his dad’s character as part of those previously mentioned shenanigans. But “Monarch: Legacy of Monsters,” a TV series version of the Godzilla monster-verse, is very much an ensemble project. And most of the actors will be returning for the new season, which debuts next month. You’ll probably be pleased to hear that this isn’t the only prestige-TV show Russell will be appearing in this year. He’ll also be starring in “The Madison,” a new spinoff of the runaway hit series “Yellowstone.” “The Madison” is currently in production, reportedly targeting a release sometime this year. This is all good news for TV fans in general, as Russell, a true screen great, has long rejected the small screen. Though he started out as a jobbing actor (child actor, in fact) in bit TV parts, he hadn’t done a single TV role between 1980 and 2021, when he voiced a couple of episodes of the Marvel series “What If ...”. Though in that case, he was reprising his role in the big-screen smash “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2.”
