Briefly: The battle for the Iron Throne will continue in 2014. HBO has officially renewed Game of Thrones for a fourth season after its successful third season premiere earlier this week.
Based on the series of novels A Song of Ice and Fire by George R.R. Martin, the first two seasons of the show have used the first two books as blueprints. The rumor is the show will begin to slow down with season three, splitting each book into two seasons. Hopefully, this will allow Martin to finish the rest of the series in print. (A Song of Fire and Ice is planned as seven books, only five have been published thus far.)
Our /Film Game of Thrones podcast, A Cast of Kings, will surely talk much more about this on Monday. [Deadline] Read More »

For all the hype and buzz Game of Thrones gets, it’s a little surprising to realize how little of our time we spend actually watching the show. Each season consists of a measly ten one-hour episodes, aired over ten weeks. And while those individual installments are jam-packed with drama and action, that still leaves 42 other weeks of the year with no Game of Thrones at all.
No doubt that means plenty of fans would be eager to spend a lot more time in Westeros if only they had the chance. And HBO is apparently considering giving it to them. In a recent interview, author George R.R. Martin revealed that there have been some talk about the possibility of a Game of Thrones prequel series, maybe based on his Dunk and Egg novellas. Hit the jump to read more.

At long last, the enduring patience of Game of Thrones fans is about to be rewarded. The Season 3 premiere of the fantasy drama is just two weeks away, as HBO’s marketing team is more than eager to remind you.
Over the weekend, we got not one, not two, but three new promos for the series, containing tons of juicy new footage between them. “War” goes into the reasons these scattered Westerosi are taking up arms against each other, “The Beast” looks at the darkness within these characters, and the 90-second full-length trailer explores the massive scope of the story. Check out all the videos after the jump.
