GRRM reveals new details about the GoT prequel.

It's likely to be more chaotic and awry than GoT !




As we all know, the prequel to Game of Thrones prequel is on the cards and is currently in the works, the hype is increasing by day among the fans. The author and the show's executive producer George R. R. Martin recently had an interview with Entertainment Weekly. He revealed some details regarding the pilot episode of the show. It is currently being filmed somewhere in Northern Ireland .

HBO has already revealed that the show is set up in a time-frame of roughly around 5000 years before that of GoT. In this, the Westeros is going to be a totally different place than we saw in GoT. It is likely to reveal the confrontation between the White Walkers and the First Men of the Westeros which is called The Long Night.

These are the revelations that GRRM made -

  • The Westeros is likely to be more vast than it is in GoT. It could be divided into hundreds of kingdoms during this time. This means that, accordingly, there will be hundreds of houses fighting for their respective kingdoms. Sounds way more dangerous and full of chaos, right ? 
  • There were no revelations as of all the prime houses in GoT will be there in the prequel or not. However, Martin stated that the House Stark will definitely be there. Also, there will be animals like dire-wolves and mammoths. Whoo, that's bone chilling !😰
  • The prequel involves the rise of the Lannister family. This will be fun, for sure ✔. But, this means, there won't be any Lannisters, at least not at the beginning. Martin said, "Casterly Rock is certainly there; it's like the rock of Gibraltar." This hints that the Lannister family homestead i.e. Casterly Rock is in the hands of some other family. 
  • GRRM cleared that this will be an ensemble story like GoT. What he meant by this was, there won't be any lead character(s) in the prequel too. It will be more like something with supporting categories only.
  • The show may get a different title than the one which is in the talks- 'The Long Night'. However, there's no surety about this. As of now, the show is still untitled. 


Anyhow, all we want is the show to be full of uncertainties and to be totally unpredictable, as we used to experience during the earlier seasons of GoT. Good luck Martin, we all believe in you guys !
