OVER two years after the Game of Thrones series finale fans will be seeing their favorite book come to life once again. George R. The prequel will focus on Emilia Clarke's character , Daenerys Targaryen's ancestors.
News reported that HBO ordered 10 episodes of the new show soon after the eight season series came to a close. Martin wrote on his website his anticipation for the new show House of the Dragon.
We can use key pieces of evidence to narrow down just when this all theoretically happened. The events of Game of Thrones begins in AC. Game of Thrones was set in a fantasy realm called Westeros, and in geographical terms, it was predominantly modeled off of high medieval Europe. The time period was most likely sometimes during the late era around the Middle Ages, shortly before the commencing of the Renaissance era.
If the overall style of the story is anything to go by, we can narrow the time period down to anywhere from the 16 th century. An important factor to remember is that Game of Thrones is not set on earth, it was set in an alternative place and era, one that could only truly exist in their realm or alternate version of our own, and not quite on Earth.
However, there are quite a few details that pay tribute to cultural benchmarks, such as the dress style appearing to be shortly before the Renaissance era and touches of Gothic architecture in buildings and cathedrals. There are grand palaces, castles, and the presence of plated armor which was popular at the time. In addition, there is a concept of legal systems, bureaucracy, and monasteries established. In an earthly world, there would be little tolerance for other religions and cultures around that time, and a large portion of the popularity would not be able to read or write.
There would also be very little knowledge of the human body, medicine, and knowledge of other places across the ocean. As the Hand sees it, the greatest threat to the realm is the king's brother, Daemon, and his position as heir to the throne. Sonoya Mizuno as Mysaria. She came to Westeros with nothing, sold more times than she can recall, and could have wilted Fabien Frankel as Ser Criston Cole. He has no claim to land or titles; all he has to his name is his honor and his preternatural skill with a sword.
Many would say that Rhaenyra was born with everything Alicent was raised in the Red Keep, close to the king and his innermost circle; she possesses both a courtly grace and a keen political acumen. Harwin is said to be the strongest man in the Seven Kingdoms.
Jason is the Lord of Casterly Rock. Tyland Lannister is a crafty and calculating politician. David Horovitch as Grand Maester Mellos. The last one in particular looks a lot like Drogon with the redish hue to its scales. Sapochnik directed some of Game of Thrones' most pivotal episodes, including "Hardhome" and "Battle of the Bastards," while Condal is an established screenwriter and producer well familiar with Martin's work.
The Game of Thrones prequel starring Naomi Watts was canceled late last year, despite filming its pilot episode. And before that, HBO commissioned five writers to have a crack at their own Game of Thrones prequel, with some of the finest talent around ready to present their vision of Westeros.
Inevitably, only one was chosen. So, what about the other three? Martin was kind enough to update us all with a blog post about the Game of Thrones prequels before the most recent cancellation. In it, he says that, of the five prequels, one has been shelved, with three more in "active development.
The author has expressed his interest to create another Game of Thrones show called Spear Carriers, inspired by the Tom Stoppard play Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead. I think that kind of show would be a lot of fun to do. Yes, despite one canceled pilot and The House of the Dragon being in development, there's even more coming. There will also be a stage show , as well as three other spinoffs : one focusing on Princess Nymeria named , ships, another centered on Flea Bottom, and another on Lord Corlys Velaryon.
