George R.R. Martin explains how HouseOfTheDragonHBO used his book, Fire & Blood, only as an outline.
One of the greatest television shows ever made was born when HBO ordered the very first season of Game of Thrones over a decade ago. The series took us to the unpredictable and ever-changing political continent of Westeros on the basis of novels like A Song of Ice and Fire written by George R.R. Martin. When the series ended, there was a desire for more from Westeros, and then came House of the Dragon based on Martin’s book, Fire & Blood but the source materials for both differ greatly.
While Game of Thrones told the story of the last embers of light in House Targaryen through Queen Daenerys Targaryen , House of the Dragon takes us back 200 years when the Targaryen dynasty was in its pomp. While speaking at HBO’s FYC event at the DGA Tuesday, Martin explains the differences between the source materials for both shows. While Thrones was built out on novels with fully laid out dialogues and plots, Dragon was set on the basis of what he called “an imaginary history book.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY Sitting next to showrunner Ryan Condal, the author explains, “There is a special challenge to adapting Fire & Blood which is significantly different from the books and stories for Game of Thrones,” he says. “Those are five, soon to be seven I hope novels that are fully developed with the characters, the dialogues, the scenes it’s all there.
The author expresses admiration for the work done by the writers revealing that while some of the scenes had just been single lines in the book, the series expanded on it building it out wonderfully. “It’s an adaptation but also a creation,” he says. His praise is fully merited as House of the Dragon went on to become the most-watched premiere of 2022 before it was dislodged late in the year.
