Game of Thrones infographic shows every spinoff in development
By Dan Selcke
Game of Thrones ended in 2019, but HBO had no intention of letting people forget the show. It debuted a spinoff, House of the Dragon, a few years later. A second spinoff, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, is coming out next year. And there are quite a few more ideas in development, which we know of mostly because of some leak or another. There's no guarantee these other ideas will ever come to fruition, but anything is possible.
In fact, there are so many Game of Thrones projects in the works that it can hard to keep track. If you're in need of a refresher, @westerosies shared a great infographic on the subject:
This lines up with everything we've heard. Spinoff run-down!
Confirmed Game of Thrones spinoffs
- House of the Dragon: This show set well over 100 years before the events of Game of Thrones has wrapped up its second season and will return for a third in 2026.
- A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms: This prequel is set decades after the events of House of the Dragon but decades before Game of Thrones and will have a lighter tone.
Game of Thrones prequels in development
- A live-action TV show about Aegon's Conquest, when Aegon I Targaryen took over the Seven Kingdoms around 300 years before the events of Game of Thrones.
- A live-action TV show about Nymeria of the Rhoynar, who led her people from Essos to Dorne back in the days when the Valyrian empire was still at its height.
- A third live-action show. We don't have any details on this one.
- A Game of Thrones movie.
- A play called The Iron Throne, set at the Tournament of Harrenhal before Robert's Rebellion. This one sounds pretty much confirmed and could debut next year.
- An animated series about the youthful adventures of Corlys Velaryon, aka the Sea Snake, played as an older man by Steve Toussaint on House of the Dragon.
- An animated series about the Golden Empire of Yi Ti, a distant civilization we don't hear much about in either Game of Thrones or in George R.R. Martin's book series A Song of Ice and Fire.
- Three more animated series. We don't know anything about any of them.
I'll reiterate at this point that none of these projects are guaranteed to make it to the screen (or in the case of The Iron Throne, the stage). In fact, most of even all of them probably won't (again, except The Iron Throne, which sounds like it's making headway). We'll keep an eye out for more details.
