HBO confirms plans to make a Game of Thrones movie

“I think there is potential…”

Targaryen dragons on the big screen? Warner Bros. discreetly working on a film for some time now Game of Thronesset in the fantasy world of George RR Martin. The Hollywood Reporter broke the news last week, and HBO and Max CEO Casey Bloys confirmed today.

Faced with the American press gathered at a conference yesterday, he admitted the project but tempered: “When we announce at HBO that we are developing this or that story, keep in mind that it is only in development. We have two series right now in the world of Game of Thrones. I think the film follows this same idea…”

Suggesting that the film Game of Thrones is discussed above, among the executives of Warner Bros., Bloys continues: “They develop an idea, and we'll see if it's good. We'll read the scripts at the same time as them.”

Not at all opposed to this perspective, he concludes:

“I think it could be fun and interesting. That's the point of development: is there a story that deserves to be presented in the cinema and in a big show? Why not! I don't necessarily consider that from a financial perspective. I just think it could make a fun and important film. I think there's potential for it, but we're still at the very beginning of the process. “.

Until then, the second spin-off of Game of Thrones, A Knight of the Seven Kingdomswill be released in early 2025 on Max in France.
