Reports indicate a 'Game of Thrones' movie is in the early stages of development
The original *Game of Thrones* TV series became a global cultural phenomenon throughout its eight-season run from 2011 to 2019, attracting massive audiences and winning a record-breaking 59 Emmy Awards.
Could the dragons of Westeros be making their way to the big screen? According to trade outlets The Hollywood Reporter and Deadline, a Game of Thrones movie is in the very early stages of development.
The original HBO series, which aired from 2011 to 2019, became a global sensation, captivating massive audiences and earning a record 59 Emmy Awards. Based on George R.R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire series, the show follows the violent rivalries among noble families and has already inspired the TV spinoff House of the Dragon, with more small-screen adaptations on the way.
Though Martin and original showrunners David Benioff and Dan Weiss have previously explored ideas for Game of Thrones films, parent company Warner Bros. Discovery has traditionally resisted bringing the franchise to theaters. However, *The Hollywood Reporter* noted that recent leadership shifts at Warner Bros., along with the success of franchises moving between film and television—such as The Batman, Dune, and the upcoming Harry Potter TV series—may have opened the door to a change.
Warner Bros. is reportedly “quietly developing at least one film” set in the *Thrones* universe. Deadline added that discussions are still in preliminary stages, with no stars attached to the potential project yet.
