Confederate is still alive at HBO, said network president Casey Bloys – but the speed of his progress is only up to the creators of the series, David Benioff and D.B. Weiss. And they are a little busy right now.
"Dan and David finish the last season Game of Thrones ] and then they will enter the Star Wars. universe, "Bloys told TVLine on Friday. "When they come out, I presume that they will come back to us."
In February 2018, of Trrones presenters Weiss and Benioff signed to write and produce a new trilogy of Star Wars movies. In July, Bloys stated that the contract between the duo and Disney (owner of the franchise Star Wars ) would mean "no change" for Confederate the drama of one hour which staged science fiction sparked controversy when HBO cleared it up in July 2017.
Confederate envisioning a post-civil war alternative world in which "the southern states have successfully separated from the Union, giving birth to a nation in which slavery remains legal. and has evolved to become a modern institution, "according to the official logline. Critics pointed to the irony of two white men, who were criticized for Thrones' lack of racial diversity during a show about slavery. HBO subsequently admitted to having stammered the "wrong" announcement of the series.
Bloys argued that Confederate's production calendar entirely depends on Benioff and Weiss and is not affected by the controversy. "The delay has to do with [the fact] the fact that they have been offered three films," he said.
Confederate's creative team also includes two prolific African-American writer-producers: Nichelle Tramble Spellman ( The Good Wife ) and Malcolm Spellman ( of Empire ). In July, Bloys stated that no script Confederate had been written yet.
The game plan of the series is "really until [Benioff and Weiss]", he added Friday. "It's hard to tell anyone you can not do Star Wars . They love it. It's a childhood dream. They will do that, remember why they love TV and come back. " – Report by Michael Ausiello
