With the final season of Game of Thrones just over two months away, HBO has quickened its pace on the long-gestating prequel series to the epic fantasy tale.
The untitled pilot takes the prequel concept to a new level as it is set thousands of years before the events of Game of Thrones.
The big-budgeted spinoff is created by Jane Goldman (Kick-Ass, Kingsman) and GOT author George R.R. Martin, written by Goldman based on a story by her and Martin.
He also noted that “three more Game of Thrones prequels, set in different periods and featuring different characters and storylines, remain in active development.”
