The creators of “Game of Thrones,” have signed a multiyear production deal with Netflix, where they will exclusively write, produce and direct new series and films.
The fantasy’s epic final season adds an Emmy feather to its cap with a record-breaking 32 nominations. And deservedly so.
Their controversial alternate-history drama for HBO, “Confederate,” would seem to be all but dead at the premium cable channel. HBO did not have any comment about the status of the project, but president of programming Casey Bloys it would be unlikely that projects Weiss and Benioff developed at the network would proceed if they signed a deal elsewhere.
A shared creative sensibility with the team at Netflix won the pair over, according to their statement.“Over the past few months, we’ve spent many hours talking to Cindy Holland and Peter Friedlander, as well as Ted Sarandos and Scott Stuber,” the statement read, referring to top brass at the streamer. “We remember the same shots from the same ‘80s movies; we love the same books; we’re excited about the same storytelling possibilities.
Benioff and Weiss have other, previously announced projects already keeping them busy since “Game of Thrones” wrapped, including creating, writing and producing one of the next “Star Wars” trilogies and adapting the prison-break feature “Dirty White Boys” for 20th Century Fox. HBO is developing a number of “Thrones” spinoffs to help fill the dragon-sized void left by the blockbuster drama, but Benioff and Weiss are not involved in those productions.
