Game of Thrones: images of the canceled spin-off leak online



Before House of the Dragon there was Bloodmoon

After the end of his cult series game of Thrones in 2019, HBO quickly announced that it wanted to continue the adventure with several spin-offs set in the same universe. The first to be started was the one once named Red Moonand dedicated to the Strangers. Set approximately 8,000 years before the events of the original series, this project was supposed to tell about the famous “Long Night”, a dark period in the history of Westeros, during which the White Walkers attacked Men for the first time (it is also called the “War of Dawn”). In addition to this narrative arc, this prequel should also have focused on the beginnings of the flagship families of the mother series, such as the Starks or House Castral (from which the Lannisters descend).

Unfortunately, after shooting the pilot, which still cost HBO 30 million, the channel decided not to give it the green light, and Red Moon it therefore died at birth. The head of HBO said in 2020 that this decision was made because of the too much of the story to imagine (no novel by George RR Martin delves into this period in depth) and who preferred to focus on already existing works, such as House of the Dragonthe first spin-off of game of Thronesbroadcast and based on the novels Fire and blood of Martin.
