New ‘Game of Thrones’ prequels are already in development

George R.R. Martin created a fantastic world with the saga of game of Thrones which was made into a series by HBO. While we await the already announced premiere of its prequel, House of the Dragon, the author continues briskly with another novel called The Winds of Winter (winter winds).

But not everything ends there. The premiere of another prequel was announced to be called Nymeria and that it is in full stage of development. The story will address the life of a legendary Dornish warrior queen, and the showrunner who will take charge of the fiction has already been chosen. Is about amanda segel (person of interest). Martin says he has already turned in some drafts. The final title of it will be Have Thousand Ships.

On the other hand, we will have a series focused on the character of Corlys Velaryon, the famous explorer and trader. His title has undergone a last minute change and will not carry that of Nine Voyages to The Sea Snake. The writer referred to this, in words collected by The Hollywood Reporterand said that this modification was due to the fact that “we wanted to avoid having two programs with numbers in the title”, referring to Ten Thousand Ship. The showrunner of this other series will be Bruno Heller (who participated in the creation of another great fiction, Rome.)

Another series that is in development is Dunk and Eggbased on the character of Aegon V Targaryens and will have Steve Conrad (Patriot) as showrunner. “He is determined to do a faithful adaptation of the stories, which is exactly what I want. These characters and stories are very precious to me,” said Martin. “The first season will be an adaptation of the first novel, The Hedge Knight”. Although the title is not yet decided, it is most likely to be The Hedge Knight or A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms.

On the other hand, there is another Martin project going around that is an animated series. Its title (provisional until now according to the author) would be The Golden Empire, will be set in the land of Yi Ti in China and will be available in HBOMax.

The creator stated that he is very focused on each of the prequels. He claimed to be “deeply and very involved in each of the new shows.” Perhaps, this is the reason why his novel is not so advanced The Winds of Winter. “I didn’t make much progress. Winds in 2020, and less so in 2021. The world of A Song of Ice and Fire is my number one priority. Let me say one more time, yes, I am still working on winter winds”, stated the author.

Recall that Martin said he was very pleased with what he could see of House of the Dragon, the spin-off that is already ready to premiere on HBO. “I myself am looking forward to it quite enthusiastically. Okay, I’m not objective. And I know a lot of what they will see. I, uh, wrote the book, ”she assured and added: “I saw a cut of the first episode and I loved it. It’s dark, it’s powerful, it’s visceral… just the way I like my epic fantasy.”

This story takes place 300 years before the events we met in game of Thrones. The history and origin of the power of the dragon tamers will be told, including King Viserys I (Paddy Considine), Princess Rhaenyra (Emma D’Arcy), Prince Daemon (matt smith) and Princess Rhaenys (Eve Best), among other characters.
