Game of Thrones showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss recently shared insights into the progress they made on their abandoned Star Wars trilogy. Benioff and Weiss, known for their successful adaptations of books into television series such as Game of Thrones and 3 Body Problem, were initially set to develop a trilogy of Star Wars movies. However, the plans for the trilogy were canceled in 2019 despite significant progress on the project.
Weiss mentioned on the 'Happy Sad Confused' podcast that they had nearly completed the story for the first movie and had outlined plans for the subsequent two films in the trilogy. He expressed regret over the missed opportunity to work on Star Wars, acknowledging that not all projects come to fruition in Hollywood.
