| Re: Come On Hbo !! Just to put up a bit of an update:
Now the Writer's Strike is over, HBO can make a decision about the ASoIaF TV series. Obviously, they still have the option for some time and may decide to sit on it for a while whilst they see what's going on with the Arthur project. An interesting revelation made last year is that this project was Weiss and Benioff's baby. They went to HBO, got them really excited about and got them to stump up for the rights. Something I didn't know is that if HBO do let the option expire, then Benioff and Weiss are apparently keen to take it to another studio (although to be honest, only Showtime I think are in HBO's league to do this project justice).
Irritatingly, there's no way of knowing when there will be movement on this. Could be tomorrow, could be six months from now. |
