House of the Dragon showrunner Ryan Condal is among the 50 most powerful TV producers of 2024

Showrunners and producers are like the anchor of a TV show to keep it floating amidst the massive waves of competition it faces. After the Game of Thrones finale debacle, no one thought that a spinoff based on George R. R. Martin‘s books had a good chance to fly. Ryan Condal proved them all wrong with his House of the Dragon, which is why he has been listed among the most powerful producers this year.

Quick details:

• The Hollywood Reporter released a list of the 50 most powerful TV producers of 2024.
• House of the Dragon showrunner Ryan Condal is among them.
• Game of Thrones showrunners also made it to the list.

Ryan Condal is one of TV’s most powerful producers

Every year, The Hollywood Reporter compiles a list of brave leaders who take the initiative to bring forth something new on TV and make it work despite all the odds. Despite the season 2 backlash and disagreements with George R. R. Martin, Ryan Condal made it to the list for House of the Dragon’s success and for also heading A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms as an executive producer. He answered a few questions for THR like:

My writer’s block cure: “2,500 crew members staring at me.”

Advice for my younger self: “Don’t take it so seriously. It’ll be fine. Have more fun. Enjoy the little victories. Travel. Write more specs.”

Game of Thrones showrunners David Benioff and D. B. Weiss are also on the list

David Benioff and D. B. Weiss made a comeback with their show 3 Body Problem on Netflix. While fans mostly remember them for the Game of Thrones Season 8 mishap, THR recognized them for their efforts with the sci-fi series. Together with Alexander Woo, their work managed to grab an impressive 52 million views. On being asked by THR the last thing they watched that made them jealous, the trio replied:

Weiss “The White Lotus.”
Benioff “Blue Eye Samurai.”
Woo “Taskmaster.”

Q: Why can’t I stream it?
Weiss “Tumbbad, an Indian horror movie I really want to see.”
Benioff “Revenge of the Nerds.”
Woo “Police Squad.”
