Alert the realm! Even because the world gears as much as return to Westeros with the upcoming premiere of “Home of the Dragon” season 2, the primary enlargement of “Sport of Thrones” to make it to the air, HBO is reportedly trying additional down the road in direction of a extra nautical-based sequence that they initially determined to move on. In a brand new weblog submit on his private web site (sure, some Boomers nonetheless have these), creator George R.R. Martin spilled the beans on a reasonably important “10,000 Ships” replace. Whereas congratulating author Eboni Sales space on successful a Pulitzer Prize for her theater play “Major Fact,” Martin went forward and revealed that Sales space has additionally been employed to write down a brand new pilot episode for “10,000 Ships,” which did not die:
“[Booth’s] an amazingly gifted younger playwright, and a pleasure to work with; when not writing and producing her prize-winning performs on- and off-Broadway, she has been stored busy by me and HBO, engaged on a brand new pilot for ‘TEN THOUSAND SHIPS,’ a ‘GAME OF THRONES’ spinoff about Nymeria and the Rhoynar. We’re all very enthusiastic about this one … although we’re nonetheless attempting to determine how we will pay for ten thousand ships, 300 dragons, and people big turtles.”
Whereas HBO tends to supply nigh-unlimited budgets to their flagship reveals, we assume Martin’s joking with that ships and dragons quip. (Alternatively, the “big turtles” line refers to a minor god that may doubtless issue into the sequence.) We all know the broad strokes of what initially impressed this sequence … but it surely stays to be seen if this new inventive rent means the sequence will take a barely totally different method than earlier than. Fingers crossed this receives a inexperienced gentle!
