Streaming: “House Of The Dragon” Welcomes 3 Fresh Knights; “Rick And Morty” Season 8 Gets Release Date

New seasons galore, folks! That’s right, the follow-up to two intensely-beloved series is just around the corner, and we’re providing you with the latest tea on what’s what.

From new cast members joining the fray, to a full-blown trailer and release date, here’s what to expect from two huge streaming shows this side of the solar system.

With every new season of a slowly-expanding series, it’s often natural that we get to see new faces that will help contribute to and expand the plot; the same is true for the hit series “House of the Dragon”.

As the third season of the show slowly approaches, we are slowly being drip-fed information, the biggest and most recent of which is that three new knights are joining Westeros’ ranks.

Introducing Ser Adrian Redfort, Ser Luthor Largent, and Ser Jon Roxton, who will be played by Barry Sloane (“Passenger,” “Six”), Tom Cullen (“Weekend,” “Knighfall”), and Joplin Sibtain (“Star Wars: Andor,” “Ghost Recon: Alpha”), respectively.

We can make the argument that these actors are here to portray your regular rank-and-file soldiers, but those who are familiar with George R. R. Martin’s work “Fire & Blood” know that these characters’ names are no slouch.

Starting off with Ser Adrian Redfort. Besides being a part of House Redfort, he is also a member of Rhaenyra Targaryen’s Queensguard following the seizing of King’s Landing, where he was quickly recruited to serve alongside Lord Commander Lorent Marbrand.

Next up is Ser Luthor Largent, an equally powerful and imposing warrior. He is a common man with no noble lineage, who rose to the rank of knight. He’s known for his exceptional track record through the ranks as an officer and later, as commander of the City Watch of King’s Landing. He is a towering figure, almost reaching seven feet tall (~213 cm tall), and is so strong that it is rumoured that he was able to kill a warhorse with one punch.

And lastly is Ser Jon Roxton: an honoured knight and head of House Roxton who allied his forces with Aegon II Targaryen and the Greens during the civil war, the Dance of Dragons. He is headstrong and quick to anger, but he has the skill to back it up. Pair this up with his famous blade, the Orphan-Maker, and he’s a force to be reckoned with.

Aside from these three, we’ll also be seeing newer faces such as James Norton as Ormund Hightower, Tommy Flanagan as Lord Roderick Dustin, and Dan Fogler as Ser Torrhen Manderly. Naturally, sharing the screen with them are previous “House of the Dragon” actors such as Matt Smith, Olivia Cooke, Steve Toussaint, Rhys Ifans, Fabien Frankel, Ewan Mitchell, Sonoya Mizuno, Harry Collett, Bethany Antonia, Phoebe Campbell, Phia Saban, Jefferson Hall, Matthew Needham, Tom Bennett, Kieran Bew, Kurt Egyiawan, Freddie Fox, Clinton Liberty, Gayle Rankin, and Abubakar Salim.

Filming for the upcoming season has already begun and is projected to be released in summer 2026.

After almost two years of waiting, the newest season of the beloved sci-fi comedy is almost upon us! Not only did the folks over at Adult Swim provide us with a brief trailer of what to expect, the team was also courteous enough to share the release date for the highly-anticipated continuation of the beloved series — 26th May.

A brief synopsis reads, “Rick and Morty is back for Season Eight! Life has meaning again! Anything is possible! Look out for adventures with Summer, Jerry, Beth, and the other Beth. Maybe Butter Bot will get a new task? Whatever happens, you can’t keep Rick and Morty down for long. People have tried!” Naturally, this doesn’t really discuss what to expect from the upcoming season, but it is something we expected from the series.

We can see the family once again travelling across the stars, fighting and often escaping alien forces, and even the church? We also get to see more of Space Beth, who we all know took a back seat in season 7, though she’s a bit worse for wear. However, that isn’t stopping her from squaring up against the Galactic Federation. We also noticed Earth Beth and Summer having a fight over their new hairstyles, Jerry trapped in a crystal, and, of course, alternate Ricks.

Being an episodic series, it’s often hard to pinpoint the theme of the whole season in a single viewing, doubly so if you’re only analysing the trailer. However, following season 7’s theme of healing and reconnecting, we might see the series continue on this path, especially with the death of Rick Prime and the seemingly peaceful resolution with Evil Morty (who just wants to be alone). Naturally, this is all conjecture, and it is too early to tell.

What we know for sure is that the series will now be moving away from Netflix. As you may have known, the series has been removed from the streaming giant due to licensing issues, as Netflix failed to renew the series. It has since been with Max, where it can be streamed for the foreseeable future. It can also be streamed on Hulu.

Dan Harmon and Scott Marder, who also acts as showrunner, are executive producers of “Rick and Morty” season 8, which will star Ian Cardoni, Harry Belden, Sarah Chalke, Chris Parnell, and Spencer Grammer.
