“Game of Thrones on the big screen? The idea of a feature film in Martin's universe is being studied in Hollywood
Kyiv • UNN
Warner Bros. is exploring the possibility of shooting a feature film in the Game of Thrones universe. The project is at an early stage of development, without a director or screenwriter.
Warner Bros. is studying the feasibility of shooting a full-length feature film based on the books by George Martin. This was reported by the Hollywood Reporter, writes UNN.
Details
The publication writes that Warner Bros. is developing at least one movie in George Martin's epic fantasy universe without publicity. Several sources describe the project as a very early stage of development, without a director, actors, or screenwriter. So far, the company is only exploring the idea of Westeros invading movie theaters.
This move may represent a change in the company's strategy for the property. It is known that the showrunners of the original Game of Thrones series (David Benioff and Dan Weiss) wanted to end the series with three feature films instead of its final season in 2019. Martin was also enthusiastic about the idea of a movie. But HBO resisted this idea for a long time, wanting to retain the rights to the series.
Recall
HBO has already released Dragon's Den, a prequel to Game of Thrones, and is developing the third season. In 2025, the spin-off Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, based on Martin's Dunk and Egg stories, is due out.
Fans are also looking forward to The Winds of Winter, Martin's next book.
Add
Marvel has announced the release dates of seven new series on Disney+ from December 2024 to December 2025. The announced projects include new seasons of What If, Daredevil Born Again, and several new series.
