What Happened Before Robert's Rebellion? Another 'Game of Thrones' Spin-Off Is Coming After All — and It'll Be Better Than 'House of the Dragon' in At Least One Way
It will be easier to empathize with what is happening on screen, because your favorite original series and its spin-off will be separated by a couple of decades, and not a whole century.
Hey, fellow fantasy fans! I’ve got some exciting news that’s definitely worth celebrating. After the somewhat shaky second season of House of the Dragon, many of us wondered if HBO was going to pull the plug on more Game of Thrones spin-offs.
Well, hold onto your Valyrian steel, because it looks like another chapter is still very much alive! The project focusing on Aegon the Conqueror has been given a fresh boost thanks to an optimistic update from screenwriter Matt Tomlin, who co-wrote The Batman.
He took to social media to dispel all doubts, confirming that the series is moving forward with the active involvement of George R. R. Martin himself — and he’s even teasing an epic opening scene that’s sure to blow us away.
Apparently, “A LOT has been written,” and I can’t wait to see how they bring Aegon’s legendary story to life. For those of us who’ve followed the franchise, his name is practically synonymous with the birth of Westeros — a true icon who started it all by uniting the Seven Kingdoms and laying the groundwork for House Targaryen.
And here’s the best part: HBO is making this a direct prequel, so we’ll be right at the dawn of everything we love about Westeros — before dragons, battles, and betrayals took centre stage.
So, fellow fans, get ready! This promises to be one of the most fascinating chapters in Westerosi history — because it’s where it all began. Grab your swords and your crowns; this is one story you won’t want to miss!
