All 8 Game of Thrones spinoffs in development (Excluding House of The Dragon)
The roots of the Weirwood trees are growing deeper into the world of Westeros. HBO is looking forward to exploring Godswood and beyond with several spinoffs in development, with House of The Dragon currently being the first one confirmed to be arriving in August. One of the most recent ones to be reported is a Jon Snow spinoff that will star Kit Harington, and this brings the tally of Game of Thrones spinoffs, excluding House of The Dragon, to seven. Let’s have a look at what we know about these rumored spinoffs.
The Sea Snake (Nine Voyages)
A prequel series based on the adventures of Corlys Velaryon a.k.a. the Sea Snake, known as the greatest seafarer in the history of A Song of Ice and Fire’s Seven Kingdoms. It is reportedly the furthest along in development, after House of The Dragon. Corlys Velaryon will be played by Steve Toussaint in House of The Dragon, which makes one wonder if he will reprise the role in the prequel or if there will be a connection between the two prequels.
Ten Thousand Ships
Set about 1,000 years before the events of Game of Thrones, the series will narrate the story of Princess Nymeria, an ancestor of House Martell who founded Dorne. Amanda Segel, co-exec producer on Hulu’s Helstrom, has been tapped to helm and write the spinoff show. According to Martin, the working title of this spinoff is named after the military move in which Nymeria ordered all her ships to be burned after her army traveled from Essos to Dorne so turning back was not an option.
The Tales of Dunk and Egg series
Based on Martin’s Tales of Dunk and Egg novellas, this prequel talks about the adventures of iconic knight Ser Duncan the Tall (Dunk) and his squire (Egg) — who is destined to become King Aegon V Targaryen. One of the most requested spinoffs by the fans, this prequel is set 90 years before Game of Thrones and is helmed by Steve Conrad.
The Golden Empire and two other animated series
Three animated prequel projects, one of which is set in Essos. Inspired by the Chinese Empire, The Golden Empire of Yi Ti has been confirmed by Martin himself, but he refused to give any significant detail.
Jon Snow spinoff
The most recent leak that indicates the return of Kit Harington as Jon Snow. Most probably a sequel that will explore the world beyond the Wall.
Flea Bottom series (Possibly scrapped)
A place featured quite often in Game of Thrones, and the birthplace of Gendry and Ser Davos. Not much is known about the series yet. Rumored to have been scrapped, but not confirmed yet.
