- Warner Bros. dated 'Game of Thrones: Aegon's Conquest' for June 1, 2029, with Owen Harris directing off Oscar-nominated screenwriter Beau Willimon's script.
- The film centers on Aegon I — the first king of the Targaryen dynasty who united Westeros with dragons Balerion, Vhagar, and Meraxes — marking his first-ever onscreen depiction.
- George R.R. Martin's 'A Song of Ice and Fire' serves as source material, expanding a franchise that already includes HBO's 'House of the Dragon' and 'A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms' spinoff series.
- Paramount, set to take over Warner Bros., will inherit at least 40 theatrical releases already on the calendar from Oct 2, 2025 through 2029 — representing 56% of a combined 71 features.
- The 2029 theatrical calendar remains sparse: 'Aegon's Conquest' is the first to claim the first weekend of June, and the only other hard-dated titles are Disney/Pixar's Coco 2 (Nov 21) and Avatar 4 (Dec 21).
Why it matters: Paramount's impending acquisition of Warner Bros. means it inherits a pre-loaded slate of 40+ dated films through 2029, with a Targaryen prequel anchoring the early-summer frame against essentially no other major-studio competition in that window.
