HBO is developing a trio of new âGame of Thronesâ prequel series, sources tell Variety.
One spinoff, titled â9 Voyagesâ or âSea Snake,â hails from âRomeâ co-creator Bruno Heller, while the other two, âFlea Bottom,â and â10,000 Shipsâ have no writers yet attached.
â9 Voyagesâ would center on Lord Corlys Velaryon â known as the âSea Snakeâ and head of House Velaryon, husband to Rhaenys Targaryen â on the Sea Snake vessel. The most well-known nautical adventurer in all of Westeros, Lord Corlys â built a house even wealthier than the Lannisters and claims the largest navy in the world.
âFlea Bottomâ would take place in the poorest district of Kingâs Landing, while â10,000 Shipsâ revolves around Princess Nymeria, who journeyed with the Rhoynar to Dorne and married Lord Mors Martell.
These projects follow another âGame of Thrones,â âHouse of the Dragon,â which is already much further along, having cast Paddy Considine, Olivia Cooke, Emma DâArcy, and Matt Smith, in addition to Steve Toussaint, Rhys Ifans, Eve Best, and Sonoya Mizuno. Considine will star as King Viserys Targaryen, with Smith as his younger brother Prince Daemon Targaryen, DâArcy as Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen, the kingâs firstborn and Cooke as Alicent Hightower.
While not much else is known about the three series in development, Toussaint has been cast as Velaryon in âHouse of the Dragon,â seemingly setting the actor up for two series set in the fictional world from George R.R. Martin. The same could also be speculated about Best, who has been cast as his wife and dragonrider Princess Rhaenys Velaryon (nee Targaryen).
