‘Game of Thrones: Aegon’s Conquest’ gets theatrical release after 2027, will bring Westeros to the big screen
Warner Bros. Discovery has confirmed that a 'Game of Thrones' feature film, 'Aegon’s Conquest', is in development for a theatrical release after 2027. The project, written by Beau Willimon, will adapt events from George R.R. Martin’s 'Fire & Blood'.
Why it matters
This marks a major strategic shift for the 'Game of Thrones' franchise as it expands from television into the theatrical film market.
The first Game of Thrones feature film has received a significant release update, with Warner Bros. confirming that Game of Thrones: Aegon’s Conquest will be part of its theatrical slate beyond 2027
The announcement comes through Warner Bros. Discovery’s second-quarter 2026 shareholders’ letter, which places the film among the studio’s post-2027 theatrical projects alongside new entries in The Matrix , Batman and The Jetsons . The studio has yet to announce a specific release date, meaning 2028 is currently the earliest possible window, with a 2029 release also looking plausible given the project’s current stage of development.
