Game Of Thrones
After a mostly herald eight - time of year foot race , HBO ’s hit fantasy seriesGame of Throneshas finally come to an end . Whatever opinions viewers have of time of year 8 and the serial ' conclusion , it ’s hard to deny the need for moreGame of Thrones / A Song of Ice and Firecontent . Game of Thronesis the most successful television show in HBO ’s story , and you better believe they ’ll be milking this cow for all it ’s worth .
fortuitously for HBO , the fertile authorship of author George R.R. Martin provide enough fabric for literally heaps of full - duration series , yet still some spin - offs are more likely than others . To that end , here are 5 possibleGame of Thronesspin - offs and 5 that will never happen .
Possible: Bloodmoon (The Long Night)
Of all theGame of Thronesspin - offs rumour to be in the works , Bloodmoon ( working statute title ) is belike the most probable to derive to fruition . In fact , George R.R. Martin himself latterly indite that this prequel serial would begin shooting " later this class , " and before long after believable reports began to surface that indeed , film for Bloodmoon had begun .
Add to that a number ofconfirmed high - visibility cast extremity , and it ’s backbreaking to see Bloodmoon not becoming a pilot , at the very least . Previously nicknamed The Long Night , this series will reportedly be mark during the time when the Others , the novels ' eq of White Walkers , first began to call forth U. S. Army of Wights in Westeros .
Never Happening: Arya Goes West
Arya Stark hold out the famously dangerousGame of Thronesand became the Hero of Winterfell after slaying the Night King . In the finale , Arya sought to answer a question she ’s asked for a retentive clock time : what ’s Dame Rebecca West of Westeros ?
regrettably , while the title certainly writes itself , Arya Stark ’s on - screen journeying seems to have come to a finish in the serial publication close ofGame of Thrones , as HBO lately confirmed that Arya Stark wo n’t be getting a tailspin - off . HBO computer programming chief Casey Bloys also clarify that any twisting - off ofGame of Throneswould focalize on newfangled theatrical role not yet seen onscreen .
Possible: Aegon’s Conquest
Aegon ’s Conquest occurred roughly 300 eld before the events ofGame of Thronesand has been referenced several times throughout the show ’s campaign . In time of year 2 , we hear Tywin Lannister reference Aegon ’s Conquest when he speaks from within the ruin of Harrenhal about the city ’s burn under Aegon and his sisters ' dragons .
Much of the present day ’s political structure , both physically and figuratively , were formed during Aegon I Targaryen ’s mostly - successful campaign to rule the Seven Kingdoms . There is also atonof literary fabric on which to base an Aegon ’s Conquest prequel , includingA World of Ice & FireandFire & Blood .
Never Happening: Robert’s Rebellion
It ’s not operose to piece together a approximate outline of what happened during Robert ’s Rebellion using information revealed inGame of Thrones . fundamentally , Robert Baratheon rebelled against Arys Targaryen ’s rule , leading to a number of high - profile battle and the eventual discharge of King ’s landing place with the assist of Tywin and the Lannister forces .
Within this overarching storey , several shaping events transpire that would mold the trajectory of politics in Westeros for the course ofGame of Thronesand beyond , including the abduction of Lyanna Stark by Rhaegar Targaryen , Jaime Lannister kill King Arys , and the birth of Jon Snow . Unfortunately , George R.R. Martin personally pall any hope of seeing Robert ’s Rebellion make the passage to TV , conclude that the completedA Song of Ice and Fireseries will resolve any remaining questions fans have about Robert ’s Rebellion .
Possible: Building of the Wall in the North
Everyone have it away about the Wall , the massive ice social organization fight back by the Night ’s Watch that protect the Seven Kingdoms from threats in the North . But how did the wall get built ? Legend says Bran the Builder is responsible for , along with nipper of the Forest and titan . If rightful , it ’d be bewitching to see what conduce to the transmissible laminitis of House Stark joining up with the Children and titan to ramp up the structure .
It ’s made clear inGame of Thronesthat the Children are not friends of the White Walkers , but there ’s mint of intrigue around how that conflict postulate Bran the Builder and goliath . well yet , this outcome has n’t been ruled out as a possible television adaptation .
Never Happening: The adventures of Hot Pie
Hot Pie ’s pure - hearted culinary pursuits live exclusively outside the land of political battle and bally wars , leaving open a golden chance for a lighthearted comedy report set within the unforgiving earthly concern of Westeros during the Great War .
As charming as it might be to see Hot Pie perfecting his animal - influence bread and Proto-Indo European - make acquirement , George R.R. Martin singled out Hot Pie as one fiber unlikely to be present a spin - off . " All of you hop for the further adventures of Hot Pie are doomed to disappointment,“Martinsays . At least we ’ll always have the fact that the player who portrayedHot Pie open his own bakeryto warm our carb - loving affectionateness .
Possible: The Doom of Valyria
We ’ve get wind the horrifying outcome of come up into liaison with the Stone Men of Old Valyria , most conspicuously in the case of Ser Jorah Mormont , who scantily escaped his piteous fate with the help of Samwell Tarly . However , this is another aspect of the show that could utilise a lot of fleshing out ( no pun intended ) .
Valyria was once an overwhelmingly powerful capital and stronghold of one of Westeros story ’s most potent empires , and it ’s nightfall after the ruinous volcanic event known as the Doom seems pile of material for at least a mini - serial .
Never Happening: The Brotherhood Without Banners
You ’ll remember the Brotherhood Without Banners as most conspicuously appearing in earlier season , top by Beric Dondarrion and Thoros of Myr . What is n’t so clear in the show is that this band of peaceable criminal form when Ned Stark send a company to avail rejuvenate and maintain repose in the Riverlands as the War of Five king broke out .
We see both Thoros and Beric ’s fate act as out in time of year 8 , but there are still a portion of unreciprocated question about the Brotherhood Without Banners that would sure make for a good story to play out on telly . Unfortunately , this is unlikely to play out because George R.R. Martin is opposed to immature - lighting spin - offs that involve characters fromGame of Thrones .
Possible: The Night King’s origin story
quite a little of buff were upset aboutthe disconnected end to the Night King at the hand of Arya Stark , and for upright cause . After seven season of figure up , the Night King and his entire United States Army of White Walkers and Wights were destroyed with a single stab of a Valyrian Steel Dagger . For that understanding alone , a prequel story follow the origins and creation of the Night King would almost assuredly be a crowd - pleaser .
The Night King does n’t exist in the novel in the same way as the show , but that could leave a stack of creative familiarity for the possible showrunners to invent a captivating origin story forGame of Thrones ' most scourge - inducing villain .
Never Happening: Tales of Dunk & Egg
Dunk & Egg is a pop serial of novellas based in the A Song of Ice and Fire novels that follows Aegon V Targaryen in his youth while he squire for the hedge knight , Ser Duncan the Tall . As thrilling as the couple ’s adventures would be to watch unfold on tv set , George R.R. Martin has ruled this out as a possibility , at least for the cheeseparing future .
Perhaps learning from his experience withGame of Thronessurpassing his own tarradiddle inA Song of Ice and Fire , Martin had this to say about aTales of Dunk and Eggspin - off series : " We ’re not doing Dunk & Egg , as there are at least seven or eight or ten novellas I want to publish before bringing the story to video . " skilful news for Quran - lector , but not so sound for fans hop for a television adaptation .
