It’s almost time to return to Westeros.

The first trailer for the Game of Thrones prequel series A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms has arrived. HBO first debuted the official teaser trailer during a panel at New York Comic Con on Thursday before releasing it online.

A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is a six-episode half-hour drama series about the adventures of an unexpected duo. It is based on the novellas by George R.R. Martin.

“A century before the events of Game of Thrones, two unlikely heroes wandered Westeros … a young, naïve but courageous knight, Ser Duncan the Tall, and his diminutive squire, Egg,” according to the show’s official logline. “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.”

This new series will take place 72 years after House of the Dragon and 100 years before the events of Game of Thrones. It stars Peter Claffey as Ser Duncan “Dunk” the Tall and Dexter Sol Ansell as Egg.

“I need to fight honorably. But sometimes I think I buried my courage alongside the old man,” Ser Duncan the Tall says in the trailer as we see him prepare for battle.

Also part of the show’s cast are Daniel Ings, Bertie Carvel, Sam Spruell, Shaun Thomas, Finn Bennett, Edward Ashley, Tanzyn Crawford, Henry Ashton, Youssef Kerkour, Tom Vaughan-Lawlor and Daniel Monks.

(SPOILER ALERT) A huge secret about Selena Gomez‘s character, Alex Russo, was revealed in the season 2 finale of Wizards Beyond Waverly Place.

All season 2 episodes of the Wizards of Waverly Place sequel series arrived on Disney+ on Wednesday. This includes the two-part finale, which revealed Alex is the mother of the young wizard and star of the sequel series, Billie (Janice LeAnn Brown).

Brown and David Henrie, who stars as Justin Russo, spoke to ABC Audio about the emotional finale.

The truth of Billie’s parentage is revealed after Alex cries while seeing Billie in pain. Her tears cause the spell that wiped the Russo family’s memory to break, allowing everyone to remember Billie is Alex’s daughter.

“Very emotional thing to film for me,” Brown said. “Ms. Selena was so great, so it was really easy to feed off of her. She was such a great scene partner, and I’m just so excited for everyone to see the lore. I myself was shocked.”

Henrie says Brown “and Selena brought Emmy-worthy performances. Seriously, like, I think we’re gonna win an Emmy this season. And if we do, it’s in large thanks to you and Selena’s performance at the end there.”

The actor said watching Gomez perform the emotional scene was a full-circle moment going back to the 2009 film Wizards of Waverly Place: The Movie.

“There’s an end scene in that movie where she has to get very emotional because she realizes that my character forgot who she is. It’s a tear-jerking moment and she couldn’t get the tears going on set,” Henrie said. “She got it eventually, but [it] was difficult. And now, present day, the script said her tear had to be a certain place on her cheek, and she is now so good, and her talent is so honed in, that she got the tear on the place where it was written to be on her cheeks. That’s how good she was.”

Sam Mendes has reportedly found his Linda McCartney.

Deadline reports that Oscar-nominated actress Saoirse Ronan has been cast to play Paul McCartney’s first wife and Wings bandmate in the director’s The Beatles — A Four-Film Cinematic Event.

The four films are expected to hit theaters in April 2028, with each one told from the point of view of a different band member. It will star Paul Mescal as McCartney, Harris Dickinson as John Lennon, Barry Keoghan as Ringo Starr and Joseph Quinn as George Harrison.

The Sony films will mark the first time Apple Corps Ltd. and The Beatles have granted a studio the rights to the life stories of the band members and their legendary catalog of music.

Linda, who passed away from breast cancer in April 1998, started her career as a photographer, shooting such celebrities as Bob Dylan, Neil Young and The Who. She shot Eric Clapton for Rolling Stone in 1968, becoming the first female photographer to land a cover of the magazine.

Paul and Linda married in March 1969 and had three children together, Mary McCartney, Stella McCartney and James McCartney. Paul also adopted Linda’s daughter Heather, from her first marriage to Joseph Melville See Jr.

After The Beatles broke up in 1970, Paul taught Linda how to play keyboards and she became part of his post-Beatles band Wings. She was also a vocal animal rights activist and successful vegetarian cookbook author.

(NOTE LANGUAGE) Kim Kardashian stars in the official trailer for All’s Fair.

Hulu released the trailer for the upcoming series on Wednesday. Ryan Murphy wrote, executive produced and directed episodes of the new show, which also stars Naomi Watts, Niecy Nash-Betts, Teyana Taylor, Matthew Noszka, Sarah Paulson and Glenn Close.

The show follows a team of female divorce attorneys who leave a male-dominated firm and open up their own practice. “Fierce, brilliant, and emotionally complicated, they navigate high-stakes breakups, scandalous secrets, and shifting allegiances—both in the courtroom and within their own ranks,” the show’s official synopsis reads. “In a world where money talks and love is a battleground, these women don’t just play the game—they change it.”

Set to Britney Spears‘ song “Work Bitch,” the trailer finds Kardashian’s character, Allura Grant, going through a divorce of her own. She goes head-to-head with Paulson’s character, Carrington Lane, who is the attorney representing her husband in the divorce.

“I tell my clients every day, ‘You never really know a person. It’s just a trap,'” Kardashian says in the trailer.

We also see Paulson dressed up in an outfit that closely resembles Kardashian. Paulson says, “Before you comment on my new appearance, please know that this look is,” when Kardashian interrupts her and says, “Mine!”

Paulson finishes her statement by saying the look is “nothing more than next Halloween’s costume,” where she “will be dressing as a w**** lawyer.”

All’s Fair premieres Nov. 4 on Hulu.
