If you thought Lucasfilm might let off the gas a bit when it comes to how many new Star Wars movies they’re developing anytime soon, you thought wrong.

It’s been announced that David Benioff and D.B. Weiss, the creators, producers, writers, and sometimes directors of HBO’s Game of Thrones, have signed on to write and produce a series of new Star Wars titles.

We’ve known since the penultimate season of Game of Thrones came to a close at the end of August there was a chance that there would be no new episodes for the entirety of 2018, and that we might have to wait until 2019 for the final season to arrive at our eyes.

Now HBO has confirmed it: Game of Thrones season eight will be arriving in 2019. They’ve also confirmed how many episodes fans can look forward to seeing when the final season does arrive, and who’s writing and directing those final episodes. You can read HBO’s announcement below.

HBO has announced Confederate, the next project from David Benioff and D.B. Weiss, the creators, writers, producers, and showrunners behind their mega-hit series Game of Thrones.

The series is set in an alternate historical timeline, in which the southern states successfully seceded from the United States and events are leading toward a third American Civil War.

While filming the upcoming seventh season, HBO’s Game of Thrones broke some interesting records. At least they think they did.

Anyone who’s been watching the series knows there be dragons coming. And of course where there are dragons, there are things being set aflame. According to a new report, the show set a whole lot of people on fire for this season. More than any other entertainment production has before, in fact.

Some type of spinoff to HBO’s Game of Thrones has been expected since we the fans, and especially HBO, realized how big of a hit it was. The world that the “Song of Ice and Fire” series is set in runs so very deep with history, it can be overwhelming to try to take it all in. It would be crazy not to bring some of those other stories to life. There’s a wealth of great tales to be told—especially ones that happened before the events of the show—such as Robert’s Rebellion, the Children of the Forest (seen above), the fall of the city of Valyria, and so many more. That’s why it was no great shock to find out that, after the main series wraps up, a prequel was more likely than a spinoff.

Now comes news even more exciting than just a potential prequel. It’s being reported that not one, but FOUR different potential Game of Thrones spinoffs are now being developed, and four writers have signed on to work on them along with George R.R. Martin.
