Tom Glynne-Carney as Aegon II Targaryen in House of the Dragon Season 2
The Big Picture Roughly one month out from the premiere of House of the Dragon Season 2, one writer of a Targaryen-related spin-off series revealed some interesting information about the upcoming show. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Mattson Tomlin, who has been tasked with penning the script for the upcoming Game of Thrones spin-off based on Aegon's Conquest, gave a status update on the development of the show and also talked about where he's finding inspiration.
Mattson Tomlin Compares Aegon’s Conquest to Napoleon and Alexander the Great Close In addition to providing a script update, Tomlin also spoke about the challenges of adapting a series with much less source material to work from than the original Game of Thrones show: Tomlin and House of the Dragon creator Ryan Condal have a different set of challenges than original Game of Thrones creators David Benioff and D.B. Weiss. Both House of the Dragon and the upcoming Aegon's Conquest spin-off are based on Fire & Blood, which uses the power of multiple perspectives and recollections to tell a story, instead of just one concurrent timeline to detail events.
