After the successful, smaller-scale story of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms reignited fan interest in the world of Game of Thrones, Warner Bros. Discovery is planning a large-scale Game of Thrones movie focusing on Aegon the Conqueror, with the writer of Andor penning the script. However, Paramount’s competitive moves within the film industry could jeopardize the project before it reaches theaters.
I’m hearing from Page Six Hollywood that Warner Bros. Discovery is actually making a movie about Aegon the Conqueror – you know, the first Targaryen king who united Westeros. Apparently, they’ve been thinking about telling his story for a while, originally as a TV spinoff. But now, they’re going all in with a theatrical release. It’s interesting because I remember reading that David Benioff and D.B. Weiss had always envisioned a movie like this for the original Game of Thrones series, so it’s cool to see that idea finally taking shape.
A script for a potential new Game of Thrones movie exists, and it’s promising enough to have studio executives excited. Beau Willimon, known for his work on Andor and House of Cards, has completed a first draft, according to Page Six Hollywood sources.
The potential sale of Warner Bros. Discovery to Paramount Skydance has created a lot of uncertainty in Hollywood. Even those working on the planned Game of Thrones movie aren’t sure if it will actually be made anytime soon, as Warner Bros. executives may be limited in what they can approve before the deal is finalized.
Whether a movie adaptation will work is uncertain. While Willimon’s experience is impressive and the script could be excellent, the story of Aegon the Conqueror might be too expansive for a film. Building a world like Westeros takes time – it wasn’t created overnight. It remains to be seen if the Targaryens’ fiery rise to power can be effectively told in just two hours.
