Interview
HBO is open to any number of Game of Thrones spinoffs, as long as the scripts “feel good”
Game of Thrones prequel House of The Dragon recently finished its Season 1 quite successfully. According to HBO chief Casey Bloys so far it is the only Game of Thrones spinoff that has been greenlit officially. However, he didn’t deny the fact that there were other projects at work, stemming from the GOTverse or the Martinverse, whichever way you prefer to call it.
It seems like more Game of Thrones spinoffs are on the way after the confirmation of House of The Dragon’s second season, which is already in the works at HBO, according to a recent statement by Bloys.
How many Game of Thrones spinoffs is HBO currently working on?
There have been several big changes at HBO and WB quite recently, following which a number of supposed spinoffs in the works were shelved. In a recent interview with Variety, Bloys put down what will it take for the rest of the spinoffs to move forward, or if there’s more Game of Thrones stuff in their plans.
“Remember to get ‘House of the Dragon’ following up from ‘Game of Thrones,’ we developed a lot of shows, shot a pilot, developed a bunch of scripts and we got ‘House of the Dragon. To do that again is going to take the same amount of effort. You have to develop a lot of things, try things. You never know what’s going to work. So we’re currently doing that. I’m not opposed to any number of shows. There’s probably a natural limit to how many fans want, but I’m open to any as long as we feel really good about the scripts and the prospects for a series.”
He added, “It takes a while to get one that hits the mark. I know George [R.R. Martin] feels the same way. You want to do one that everybody’s really proud of and excited about.”
Do you think there are more Game of Thrones stories that deserve an outing on the silver screen? Talk to us in the comments below!
