New HBO boss on keeping the Game of Thrones universe alive: "Can you really do two spinoffs? I don’t know"

TheWrap

Robert Greenblatt, the former NBC Entertainment chairman who was tapped today to oversee HBO and Turner for WarnerMedia, says he's all for keeping Game of Thrones alive via spinoffs -- if it makes sense. “I think to figure out a way to sustain Game of Thrones or the Game of Thrones world for the future is a really good idea — if it makes sense creatively and if everybody is on board,” Greenblatt tells The Wrap. "Because the last thing you want to do is roll out a spinoff or two and they’re not up to the standard of the original show and then you’ve just sort of failed miserably. But sure, it makes sense to try to sustain it if we can. You know, can you really do two spinoffs? I don’t know. I mean, I’m not even sure you can do one. You know, so I don’t know yet is the big, long boring answer and I wish I did.”
