Written by SOURCE on October 30, 2019
HBO isn’t abandoning Westeros any time soon.
Hours after pulling the plug on the Game of Thrones prequel Age of Heroes, the network announced a 10-episode, straight-to-series order for House of the Dragon—a GoT prequel that will focus on the Targaryen dynasty. The series is based off George R.R. Martin’s book Fire & Blood, and will be set 300 years before the events of GoT. Miguel Sapochnik and Ryan Condal will serve as the showrunners as well as executive producers alongside Vince Gerardis and Martin.
“The Game of Thrones universe is so rich with stories,” Casey Bloys, president of HBO programming, said in a press release. “We look forward to exploring the origins of House Targaryen and the earlier days of Westeros along with Miguel, Ryan and George.”
