HBO / LANDMARK MEDIA / VISUAL Press Agency
The
Game of Thrones
phenomenon
has not finished talking about him and it should also continue for many years to come.
It must be said that the
Iron Throne
spin-off projects
are numerous.
HBO is preparing no less than 6 television series from the universe of Game of Thrones.
And a 7th project has just been announced;
this time it will be a play.
There is indeed question that
Game of Thrones
is brought to the stage.
It must be said that with its many plots and dramatic twists, the series lends itself particularly well.
Go back
The play will not be a faithful adaptation of the series since it will be a prequel.
It will take place 16 years before the events recounted in the series, during the Great Harrenhal Tournament, a landmark event in Westeros history that had many repercussions, including the rebellion of Robert Baratheon and the overthrow of the Targaryen dynasty. .
“Few in Westeros knew the carnage to come when young and old alike gathered in Harrenhal to watch the kingdom's best knights compete in a great tournament, during the year of false spring.
It's a tournament often mentioned during
HBO's
Game of Thrones
, and in my novels,
A Song of Ice and Fire…
and now, finally, we can tell the whole story… on stage, ”said George RR Martin, the author of
Game of Thrones
.
Fans of the series will find iconic characters such as Ned Stark, Jaime Lannister, Robert Baratheon and Oberyn Martell.
For 2023
George RR Martin will be involved in the production of the play, alongside producers Simon Painter, Tim Lawson and Jonathan Sanford.
The screenplay will be entrusted to the playwright Duncan Macmillan who notably brought
Georges Orwell's
1984
to the theater.
The
Game of Thrones play is
slated to arrive on Broadway in 2023.
It is also expected to be played in London and Australia.
