Industry reports have announced that HBO has placed a straight-to-series order for a new Game of Thrones prequel series, House of the Dragon, that will be based on George R.R. Martin’s Fire and Blood.

Set 300 years before the events in Game of Thrones, the show will trace the origins of House Targaryen in early Westeros. Martin and Ryan Condal will write the 10-episode series. The pilot and other episodes in the series will be directed by Miguel Sapochnik, who earned an Emmy for helming the "Battle of the Bastards" episode of Game of Thrones.

According to The Hollywood Reporter: “This is the first time in Game of Thrones franchise history that a series will not go through HBO's typically years-long development process. The flagship famously underwent reshoots and recastings before eventually getting a series green light."
