What can I say? HBO’s Game of Thrones spinoff cup runneth over.
According to Variety, a Game of Thrones prequel about Aegon, Visenya and Rhaenys Targaryen’s legendary conquest of Westeros is being “actively discussed” at HBO. Variety‘s sources claim that these plans may include a feature component, meaning that HBO and Warner Bros might produce a feature film about the OG Targaryen king that would then lead into a series.
As intriguing as this all sounds, please keep my use of “may” and “might” in mind, along with the fact that HBO has declined to comment. So, all we actually have to go on right now are Variety‘s anonymous sources.
There are also, as I alluded to earlier, quite a few Game of Thrones spinoffs in various stages of development already. At last count the list included: Ten Thousand Ships, Nine Voyages, the Dunk & Egg adaptation, and the Jon Snow sequel. Add Aegon & Co to the roster and I think it’s clear HBO is genuinely interested in further exploring the world of George R.R Martin’s creation but gods only know which story we’re actually going to get next.
That said, Variety‘s source claims the folks at HBO are particularly “keen” to get this project going. So, it well may be that the next show we get about Westeros will be about its very formation.
