Meredith Woerner Deputy Editor, Variety.com Inspired by a recent screening of Netflix’s animated series “Blue Eye Samurai,” “Game of Thrones” creator George R.

R. Martin penned a new blog post praising the work of Amber Noizumi and Michael Green. And while he was in a sharing mood, Martin decided to drop news about his own up-and-coming animation aspirations. “‘Blue Eye Samurai’s’ very much its own thing, and it is magnificent,” Martin wrote. “Even if you don’t normally watch animation, give it a try.

It’s terrific. If you like my own stuff, I think you’ll love it.” The writer then pivoted to his current work. “As it happens, HBO and I have our own animated projects, set in the world of ‘A Song Of Ice & Fire.’ None of them have been greenlit yet, but I think we are getting close to taking the next step with a couple of them.” The father of Westeros revealed that he previously had four animated series pitches in development with HBO.

Variety broke the “Game of Thrones” animated series news back in 2021, and Martin went even further revealing that there were several writers rooms, scripts and outlines created, unfortunately, two out of the four projects were “shelved,” as Martin phrased it.
