George RR Martin, author of the popular fantasy story Game of Thrones, has hinted that the book may head to the big screen in the future. Currently, the book has been adapted by HBO for its popular hit series of the same name.
Game of Thrones fourth season of the HBO series is set to debut soon. The story revolves around a number of noble families fighting for the legendary throne.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, Martin has said that the prospect of adapting the Game of Thrones into movie franchise is being actively discussed.
Martin added that adaptation of the books into movies will depend on how long the main series runs on HBO. According to him, the books get bigger and bigger in scope and hence, it may require a feature to tie things up with a feature budget.
The author also added that there is also another possibility that a movie could be made on Tales of Dunk and Egg, which is a series of three prequel novels.
Martin has already written these three stories which could be the basis for the movie. He has a dozen more in his kitty as of now.
