While Thrones came to an end with the close of its eighth season back in May 2019, there are currently three spin-off series in development, the first of which is called 9 Voyages.
It was also recently announced that the franchise will be adapted into a stage play with the participation of George RR Martin.
The author of the A Song of Ice and Fire novels is collaborating with playwright Duncan MacMillan and Follies director Dominic Cooke on the project, which will be set in Westeros 16 years before the start of the TV series.
