HBO

Casey Bloys, Chairman and CEO of HBO and HBO Max Content, announced the renewal of multiple HBO series during a Thursday presentation from the premium cabler.

At least five series have been officially renewed, with the “Game of Thrones” spin-offs “House of the Dragon” getting a fourth season to air in 2028 and “A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms” getting a second season to air 2027.

The first season of “A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms” arrives in Janaury, “House of the Dragon” Season 3 will air this Summer while “Lanterns” is confirmed for late Summer.

Meanwhile, the Mark Ruffalo-led thriller “Task,” which had one of the fastest-growing debut seasons ever, is getting a second season with Ruffalo returning.

Also coming back are acclaimed comedies like “The Chair Company” and “I Love LA”.

Bloys also mentioned the recently cancelled “Poker Face” and the new take on the property being pitched around. He tells THR: “We heard the original take. And when I heard that Peacock wasn’t moving forward, we were curious. So we’ve had conversations, but I don’t know which way it’ll go. But I think Rian is a fantastic filmmaker, and I love the idea of Peter Dinklage, but I have nothing to report on that.”
