George R.R. Martin has shed some light about the fifth Game of Thrones prequel that he and GoT manufacturer Bryan Cogman have pitched to HBO , which include the deepness of his liaison . And it ’s a destiny .
In a Wiley Post on hisLiveJournal , Martin reveal that he ’s not just writing the serial pitch with Cogman , he ’s really a co - creator of the show idea as a whole . While vaguely describing the pitch , he did call it an adaptation , which belike stand for it ’s something that exists , on report , in the A Song of Ice and Fire canyon , as controvert to an totally newfangled in - macrocosm concept .
“ Bryan ’s serial publication will be an adaptation , and one that will beatify most fan of the book , I think , set during a very exciting period of Westerosi history . And I ’ll be work with him every measure of the way , ” Martin pen .
Martin is involved in all of the Game of Thrones prequel pitches , helping with writing and consulting , but this is the only pitch I ’ve seen him discuss from the pointedness of position of an real co - creator , which is really exciting . Fans who have been dismayed at how Game of Thrones Godhead D.B. Weiss and David Benioff have handled moving past the script might experience sticking experience Martin looks to be involved every measure of the manner on this one .
And then , of course , there ’s his collaborator , who Martin could not stop praising . Martin called Cogman Game of Thrones ’ unofficial “ Keeper of the Lore , ” with a knowledge of ASOIAF canyon that rivaled ( even exceeded ) his own . No surprise , since Cogman has been involved with the show since the very beginning , as both a author and producer .
“ If [ Weiss and Benioff ] have been the kings of Westeros for these retiring seven seasons , Bryan Cogman has surely been the Prince of Dragonstone , ” Martin save .
Martin said he wait and/or hopes that two or three of the pitches get pilot pick - ups , leading to one or more of them becoming series . With luck , the first show could debut in 2019 or 2020 . In the meantime , I ’m assume Martin will in the end fetch up The Winds of Winter — when he ’s not work on other things , like the “ four unearthly - bottom serial concept I ’ve come up up on my own , just for the blaze of it . ”
