Warner Bros. Developing Game of Thrones Movie With Beau Willimon

The project remains ungreenlit with its fate uncertain under the proposed Paramount/Skydance takeover.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets report Warner Bros. is developing a theatrical Game of Thrones feature written by Beau Willimon, with an initial script draft submitted.
  • Early reporting indicates the story may focus on Aegon I Targaryen’s conquest, a tale HBO has also been exploring as a TV project.
  • No director or cast has been announced, and the film has not received a production greenlight.
  • Industry coverage describes the movie as being envisioned at a large, Dune-like scale.
  • The plan could change if Warner Bros. is acquired by Paramount/Skydance, though incoming leader David Ellison has praised Game of Thrones and outlined a 30-films-per-year target.
