HBO Produces Prequel Series For Game Of Thrones
Tales Of Dunk And Egg includes three parts, namely The Hedge Knight published in 1998), The Sworn Sword (2003), and The Mystery Knight (2010). In 2015, these stories are merged in a book titled A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms.
The novel revolves around a weird couple and their journey. A couple of Ser Duncan the Tall (Dunk) - a knight and King Aegon V Targaryen (Egg) are the two main characters in this story. According to Variety, no scriptwriter and actor have been involved in this big project of HBO.
Apart from Tales Of Dunk And Egg, HBO seems to produce other spin-offs based on the story Robert’s Rebellion. In this story, the main character Robert Baratheon joined hands with Eddard Stark to overthrow the mad king Aerys Targaryen. This war made Westeros a mess before the later events in the Game of Thrones.

This story took place about 90 years before the event in Game of Thrones. Besides, this prequel's plot is also directly related to Jon Snow - the late Prince of Dragonstone and son of Rhaegar Targaryen.
The leak made a lot of fans of this movie franchise highly awaited and excited. Other details of this project haven't been revealed yet, including the release date. This prequel series hasn't been in development, so it's too soon to predict the release date of the film.
