HBO created one of the most enchanting worlds with its hit series ‘Game of thrones’ which was based on George RR Martin’s novel ‘A Song of Ice and Fire’. He enticed us with his fictional world and created a sort of cult following but many of the fans were left disappointed with the way things ended in the last season.
George RR Martin has signed a new 5-year deal with HBO and is said to have gained a mid-eight figure amount from his new contract. HBO has already planned a list of spin-offs for the game of thrones franchise and fans and fans couldn’t be more excited at the moment.
George RR Martin is the co-creator of the GOT prequel series ‘House of the Dragon’. He will also be executive producing the series along with a host of other prequel series that is being developed by HBO to further extend the ‘Game of Thrones’ franchise.
9 Voyages aka Sea Snake, Flea Bottom, 10,000 Ships, and an adaptation of Martin’s Tales of Dunk & Egg novellas are some of the projects that are on the slate along with a possible animated series.
HBO and George RR Martin won a lot of praise for their revolutionary project which was created on a larger-than-life scale. It bagged a ton of awards and each character had its own cult following. With the streaming era making it possible to watch titles from the comfort of any place and HBO trying to increase its footprints in the streaming world with HBO Max, this move could do wonders for the entire team involved hence the huge amount to secure the services of George RR Martin.
