GAME OF THRONES Adult-Leaning Animated Series In Early Development For HBO Max

We've been hearing quite a bit about HBO's plans for more Game of Thrones-related projects recently, and now it's being reported that an animated spinoff show is in early development for HBO Max...

On the heels of today's news that Skull Island and Tomb Raider anime series are in the works for Netflix, THR reports that a Game of Thrones animated show is also in development for the HBO Max streaming service.

It sounds like things are only in the very early stages, and the trade stresses that there's always a possibility that the series never sees the light of day. Writers are currently being met with, but no deals have been made. We have no idea which characters or era in Westeros history the spinoff would focus on, but it's being planned as an "adult-leaning project, which would be similar in tone to HBO's Emmy-winning flagship."

Aside from the upcoming House of the Dragon and Tales of Dunk and Egg (which we heard about earlier this week), the network reportedly has ideas for several other Game of Thrones prequel shows kicking around, one of which is said to focus on Robert Baratheon's rebellion.

The untitled pilot starring Naomi Watts ended up falling by the wayside, however, so there's no guarantee that any of these other projects will come to fruition.

Would you be interested in an adult Game of Thrones animated series? If so, which stories would you like it to adapt?

HOLY SHIT THEY ARE ACTUALLY DOING IT!!! I've wanted this for so long and I never thought in a million years it would happen this soon WOW!

I just hope they are able to stick to the books and the scale of the castles and the iron throne and the magical elements from the books. I CAN'T WAIT! Now all we need is for Georgey to finish the books.

@Chaos200 - Dammit I thought it was the main series. Well if this does well this may open room for what I wanted above. Maybe after George finishes the books.

I’ll probably end up eating my words, but that sounds pretty awful.

Why does "Adult leaning" mean porn to you people? It means NOT FOR KIDS. Check out 18+ anime. Not every adult animation is Rick & Morty, South Park or Hentai.

@Chaos200 - oh, believe me. I’ve checked out the 18+ anime.

@Chaos200 - It’s more that “Game of Thrones” had loads of sex and nudity, so anything accurately fitting the tone of the show would have the same.

Ha ha. My parents love Game of Thrones. So I just mentioned this to them and both immediately said I’m out. Oh American Boomers... 🤷🏽‍♂️

@TheUnworthyThor - Most people that hate anything animation that has an adult target audience show them Death Note, works everytime as a gateway.

@Chaos200 - There is not a piece of animation in existence I could show them that they would even give a chance.

@TheUnworthyThor - Besides, the fastest way to get people against adult cartoons is to show the second half of Death Note.

@Reeds2Much - Yeah you can skip Near. Though I thought he was ok.

Finally, a show to delve into those unanswered questions about the Baratheon's school districting policy.
