The world of Westeros is heading to the big screen, with the first-ever \u2018Game of Thrones\u2019 movie, \u2018Game of Thrones: Aegon\u2019s Conquest\u2019, set to arrive on 6 June 2029.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Directed by Owen Harris, who has worked on \u2018A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms\u2019, the film will be written by Beau Willimon, best known as the showrunner of Netflix\u2019s \u2018House of Cards\u2019 and a writer on Disney+\u2019s \u2018Andor\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Plot details remain limited, but \u2018Aegon\u2019s Conquest\u2019 is expected to follow Aegon I Targaryen, the founder of the Targaryen dynasty, as he begins his campaign to conquer and unite Westeros centuries before the events of the original \u2018Game of Thrones\u2019 series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Aegon I has never appeared on screen, and HBO has yet to announce who will portray the character. The story will take the franchise further back into the history of Westeros, exploring a period that has previously been referenced but never fully depicted in live action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Targaryen dynasty has already provided the foundation for HBO\u2019s two \u2018Game of Thrones\u2019 spin-offs, \u2018House of the Dragon\u2019 and \u2018A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms\u2019. The original series ran for eight seasons from 2011 to 2019 and became one of HBO\u2019s most successful productions, earning numerous Emmy Awards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While fans wait for \u2018Aegon\u2019s Conquest\u2019, \u2018House of the Dragon\u2019 is set to continue with a fourth season, while \u2018A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms\u2019 has also been renewed for a second season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With its 2029 release date now confirmed, \u2018Aegon\u2019s Conquest\u2019 will mark a new chapter for the franchise as Westeros makes its first major journey to cinemas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
