Comic Con 2019: 10 Biggest Rumours

5. The Future Of Game Of Thrones

Game of Thrones Season 8 might've generated a whirlwind of controversy as it came to an end, but this isn't the last viewers have seen of Westeros on the small screen. Several spin-off prequels are planned, and while HBO have done nothing to imply that the GOT Comic Con panel will be anything other than a victory lap of sorts, it's easy to see why it'd be in their interests to tease the future - or technically past, maybe? - of the franchise this month.

Jane Goldman is set to helm a GOT spin-off set in the past, without the Lannisters, but with the Starks. Details are scarce apart from that, but given the frosty reception to Season 8, it stands to reason that HBO may want to put the finale behind them and bring a brand new thing for fans to look forward to for Comic Con.

Granted there may be a degree of scepticism where that's concerned, but it's still in their interest to ensure Game of Thrones remains talked about, and that fans are excited about what's to come.

That's probably why fans believe there's more to this panel than a simple victory lap. Only time will tell, though, if that turns out to be the case.
