Game Of Thrones - New Q&A With Showrunners David Benioff And D.B. Weiss

Feature film writer David Benioff (Troy, The Kite Runner) and novelist D.B. Weiss found mega-success as co-showrunners of their very first TV show, HBO’s freshman medieval fantasy series Game of Thrones. It hauled in 13 Primetime Emmy nominations, including honors for top Drama Series and Writing for an episode they co-penned. That’s more nods than any drama series except Mad Men and Boardwalk Empire.

    I love the "More characters. More locations. More dragons. Less sleep. Less Ned. Less frequent bowel movements" comment!

    If they thought they were busy adapting the last book last year.... this book has bigger scenes and more locations with more characters.... I do not pity D&D right now.

    Good luck boys!

    I know GRRM created this world, but it must be so amazing for Benioff and Weiss to have this be their first show.

    Good luck indeed.  This show must be a logistical and scheduling nightmare.
