thronedfire2 12/02/21 6:53:56 PM #4:	yeah a lot of shows do pilots and nothing else because they don't get picked up they usually don't cost that kind of money though --- I could see you, but I couldn't hear you You were holding your hat in the breeze Turning away from me In this moment you were stolen... <cite>thronedfire2 posted [p:960565165] in A canceled...

zDonKEY_K0ngz 12/02/21 6:56:36 PM #6:	Was this the cancelled series about The Long Night and the origin of the White Walkers that was going to star Naomi Watts? May have ended up being a successful show if the end of GoT didnt completely ruin any interest the audience had in the White Walkers. <cite>zDonKEY_K0ngz posted [p:960565253] in A canceled...

I'm trying to imagine why it cost so much. Maybe it had some insane visuals in it. If it was some kind of mythological origin story of Westeros than perhaps that explains it. <cite>Zikten posted [p:960565332] in A canceled...

May have ended up being a successful show if the end of GoT didnt completely ruin any interest the audience had in the White Walkers. That was my guess, pretty sure I read about them cancelling the series after the pilot a year or so ago. I'm sure a show set in that period would be much harder to write, since there is so much unknown about it. Also no dragons or Targaryens. Compared to the House of the Dragon show, where they have thousands of pages of information already published, covering most of the Targ history in Westeros. Should be super easy to crank out a good show w/ that material. --- Hello world! <cite>AngelsNAirwav3s posted [p:960565714] in A canceled...
