The A Song of Ice and Fire universe will gain another live-action title in its collection. HBO’s chief has confirmed that work has already begun on a new Game of Thrones film.

At the moment, we have only a small amount of information. The film is being produced by Warner Bros., and George R.R. Martin, the creator of the original book series, will also be involved in its development. The project is in the very early stages, meaning a release is not expected anytime soon.

This is where concrete information ends, and speculation begins. Some suggest the film might serve as a sequel to Game of Thrones, while others think it will focus on events before the series. Martin has mentioned having discussions with Maisie Williams, who played Arya Stark, although it’s unclear whether this relates to this specific project or something else entirely.

There’s one hope fans share: the series was an example of a project that began very well but ended with a disappointing finale. It would be great if the film avoids following that path.
