Still from Game of Thrones series
Warner Bros is officially developing a new movie set in the world of Game of Thrones, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
The project is based on author George R.R. Martin's fantasy universe and will bring the popular series to the big screen.
Game of Thrones movie
According to the publication, the studio is working with writer Beau Willimon, who is known for his work on Andor and House of Cards. Reports say the film will focus on the story of King Aegon I Targaryen and his conquest of Westeros. The movie is being planned as a large-scale feature film.
Warner Bros. is currently in talks for a possible sale to Paramount Skydance, which has raised some questions about its future projects. However, Paramount boss David Ellison, as per The Hollywood Reporter, recently named Game of Thrones as his favourite HBO show. This has raised hopes that the film and other related projects may move forward.
The idea of a Game of Thrones movie is not new. In 2013, original showrunners David Benioff and Dan Weiss had suggested ending the TV series with three films. HBO decided at the time to continue with the show instead.
HBO already has two shows from the same world on air. House of the Dragon is set to return for its third season this summer. Another series, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, is also working on a second season. There are also reports of an animated show based on the character The Sea Snake.
More details about the movie, including casting and release date, have not yet been shared.
Kit Harington admits mistakes in series' ending
During an interaction with a British website, Harington said, “I think if there was any fault with the end of Thrones, it is that we were all so f***ing tired, we couldn’t have gone on longer. So, I understand some people thought it was rushed, and I might agree with them. But I’m not sure if there was any alternative.”
The actor, who worked on the show for a decade, highlighted how, when he looked at his pictures from the show, he found himself looking “exhausted.” “I look spent. I didn’t have another season in me.” Reacting to the criticism of Game of Thrones Season 8 (2019), the actor said, “Everyone is entitled to their opinion. I think there were mistakes made, story-wise, towards the end. There were some interesting choices that didn’t quite work.”
Harington was supposed to star in the Jon Snow spin-off, but the series was shelved.
