EXCLUSIVE: Princess Nymeria has found her chronicler.

 

Amanda Segel, co-exec producer on Hulu’s Helstrom and Person of Interest, has been tapped to write one of the Game of Thrones spinoffs. Deadline understands that Segel is tackling the 10,000 Ships project, which is one of three spinoffs that we revealed were in the works at HBO. HBO declined to comment. The drama is expected to follow the journey made by warrior queen Princess Nymeria and the surviving members of the Rhoynars, who travelled from Essos to Dorne following their defeat by the Valyrian Freehold in the Second Spice War.

 

This migration took place around 1,000 years before the events depicted in the A Song of Ice and Fire novels. Arya Stark, played by Maisie Williams, named her direwolf after Nymeria.

 

Segel’s past writing credits also include CBS’ The Good Wife, on which she was a producer, and as an exec producer on Spike TV’s Stephen King drama The Mist. She also developed a TV series based on video game Skull and Bones from Ubisoft.

 

Deadline revealed in March that HBO had three more Game of Thrones spinoffs in the works, on top of House of the Dragon, which is currently in production after receiving a series order.

The only post-GoT project certain to hit the air is the prequel House of the Dragon, which tells the story of the Targaryen Civil War, and is set for 2022. Other ideas in the works include 10,000 Ships, which follows the warrior queen Nymeria, a revered ancestor of House Martell who founded of the kingdom of Dorne, and 9 Voyages, from Rome creator Bruno Heller, which follows Velaryon, who is played by British actor Steve Toussaint in House of the Dragon.

Author George R.R. Martin gave a significant update on the Game of Thrones prequels Wednesday, including revealing their updated titles and showrunners.

 

The Nymeria series in development — about a legendary Dornish warrior-queen — is still titled Ten Thousand Ships and has tapped Amanda Segel (Person of Interest) as showrunner. Martin says she has delivered a couple of drafts.

Brian Helgeland’s illustrious Hollywood career includes winning an Oscar for writing “L.A Confidential,” directing Heath Ledger’s beloved 2001 comedy “A Knight’s Tale” and scripting films such as “Man on Fire” and “Mystic River.” It also could’ve included a “Game of Thrones” spinoff series had HBO moved forward on his pitch, which was titled “Ten Thousand Ships” and centered on Queen Nymeria.

 

“It came out great, but I think they felt the period of my show was too far removed from the pillars of the original,” Helgeland recently told Inverse about his spinoff. “That’s why it hasn’t been picked up yet, but nothing is ever dead. My script was based on Queen Nymeria and this little blurb about her that was in a Westeros encyclopedia.”

 

“Essentially, it was the story of Moses but swapping him out for Nymeria,” he continued. “Her country gets ruined and her people are forced to live on the water, which is why the show was called ‘Ten Thousand Ships.’ They end up having to leave and find a new home like the Israelites leaving Egypt. She’s leading all these people, trying to hold everyone together but things are always in danger of falling apart as they travel around a fictionalized version of the Mediterranean, looking for a new home to settle in.”
