A new #GameOfThrones prequel about Aegon I Targaryen’s conquest of Westeros is being actively discussed at HBO, Variety has learned exclusively from sources.
As the project is in its very early stages, no writer is currently attached, though sources say that the search is underway as HBO is keen to move forward and get it into development.

Sources also say that there may be a feature component to the project, i.e. HBO and Warner Bros. would produce a feature film that would then lead into the potential series, though plans remain in flux at present.
The show would tell the story of how Aegon and his sister-wives, Visenya and Rhaenys, used their army and their three dragons to conquer six of the seven kingdoms on Westeros with the exception of Dorne.

Just saw this a minute ago myself. This basically solidifies that HBO is going for a westeros cinematic universe type deal.

They got that Jon Snow sequel baking in the oven, they'll probably do something regarding the rebellion with a young Ned and Robert.

There's definitely money to be made.

A Jon Snow show does'nt make sense to me. Let that man live in peace.

However...Aegon's Conquest will be so fukking dope you can't even FATHOM

Mans pulled up on dragons and said "No more Seven Kingdoms, just ONE...I'm King now, and if it's a problem, holla"

The best exchange to describe Aegon I, The Conqueror, First of his Name....is when he pulled up on Harrenhal...

Aegon: Yield now, and you may remain as Lord of the Iron Islands. Yield now, and your sons will live to rule after you. I have eight thousand men outside your walls.

Harren: What is outside my walls is of no concern to me. Those walls are strong and thick.

Aegon: But not so high as to keep out dragons. Dragons fly.

Harren: I built in stone. Stone does not burn.

Aegon: When the sun sets, your line shall end.

And that's why Harrenhal is forever burnt toast :wow:

Call me crazy but i’m kind of anticipating a Jon Snow continuation. Before the writers reduced the series to shyt Kit Harrington was doing a great job in my opinion

Solidifies my thinking, which is that HBO understands the main reason the shows are a hit are due to dragons, Targaryens, and important women characters. Which means it's highly unlikely we're getting the other prequel shows that are in development (Dunk & Egg, Sea Snake voyages) or the big one that fans speculate on: Robert's Rebellion. They want all three of those qualities to ensure people tune in.

Aegon's Conquest is still one of the least interesting ideas IMO due to how one-sided it will be. Outside of Dorne...

Never before did I enjoy reading about characters literally pulling up like this

And they were chill about it too...like bro we got Dragons, you can't win, we'll burn your whole shyt down and they'll write songs about it

Only Dorne had balls.

The Dornish said "fukk it...burn it to the ground, but all you'll have is burnt bodies, because ain't nobody around here bending knees"

Plus I think they had a Catapult/Scorpion or some shyt :patrice:

Dorne bodied one of his sisters too. That whole sage of Aegon and Meager is some A+ writing from GRRM. I was legit made they decided to skip all that for fukking Dance of Dragons. That section was lame compared to Aegon and Meager...than you got the Old King too.

Who is litching these ideas at HBO??? They goofing

And then Meagor :wow:

He was a MOTHERfukkER :damn:

If ever there was a king to hate, it was HIM

Aegon did valiant battle with cats who refused to keep The King's Peace..

Meagor was a SAVAGE...Casually dropping bodies just to remind you that even without the dragon, that Valerian Steel ends conflict and qualms every time :whew:
