"Game of Thrones" makers David Benioff and D.B.
Weiss will compose and deliver another arrangement of "Star Wars"
films, Disney reported on Tuesday.
The new arrangement will be separate from the fundamental
long winded Skywalker adventure that began with "Star Wars: A New
Hope" and is slated to wrap up with 2019's "Star Wars: Episode
IX." It will likewise exist freely from a Rian Johnson-helmed arrangement
that was reported a year ago.
"David and Dan are a portion of the best storytellers
working today," said Kathleen Kennedy, leader of Lucasfilm, in an
announcement. "Their charge of complex characters, profundity of story and
lavishness of folklore will break new ground and strikingly push Star Wars in
ways I find amazingly energizing."
It additionally comes during an era of change for Benioff
and Weiss. "Game of Thrones," their sprawling dream epic, will end
its keep running on HBO in 2019. The show has been a huge hit for the premium
cabler and has been hailed by fanboys and commentators alike for its capacity
to blend exhibition and political wrangling. "Game of Thrones" is
adjusted from George R.R. Martin's book arrangement of a similar name.

Benioff and Weiss already reported that they were building
up another arrangement for HBO called "Confederate." However, that
show produced a lot of discussion over its plotline — it's an other history
arrangement that envisions that the American Civil war finished in a stalemate
and servitude stays lawful — which some considered coldhearted. HBO declined to
remark on the eventual fate of that arrangement.
"In the late spring of 1977 we headed out to a universe
far, far away, and we've been longing for it from that point forward,"
Benioff and Weiss said in a joint articulation. "We are respected by the
open door, somewhat startled by the duty, thus eager to begin when the last
period of 'Game of Thrones' is finished."
In 2012, Disney obtained Lucasfilm, the organization behind
the "Star Wars" arrangement, for more than $4 billion. Since that
time, the studio has been investigating novel approaches to broaden a cosmic
system far, far away past the Skywalker family's battles and to expand their speculation.
Notwithstanding another set of three that joins commonplace characters, for
example, Luke Skywalker with new Jedi warriors, the studio has upheld
independent spinoff movies, for example, "Rebel One" and next
summer's "Performance," a gander at the early years of Han Solo.
Disney did not give a course of events for when these new
Benioff and Weiss-penned movies will hit theaters. On an income call, Disney
CEO Bob Iger said that the two men had moved toward the studio with a thought a
while prior. Despite the fact that the twosome made their name in TV, Iger said
they were not intrigued by accomplishing something on the little screen.
"Their advantage was in making a progression of movies
that are 'Star Wars' based," said Iger. "As far as anyone is concerned
they didn't express enthusiasm about an arrangement."
Iger was mum on any plot subtle elements but to state that
the scholars and makers are "… centered around a state of time in the
'Star Wars' folklore."
Benioff and Weiss are repped by CAA, Management 360, and
lawyer Gretchen Rush.
