HouseofTheDragon's George R.R. Martin and TheSandman's Neil Gaiman get brutally honestly about Hollywood's unfaithful adaptations. 'There’s this phrase that goes around: ‘I’m going to make it my own.’ I hate that phrase.'
With both House of the Dragon and The Sandman finding enviable success as TV adaptations, authors George R. R. Martin and Neil Gaiman agree that Hollywood is showing better signs of delivering faithful adaptations. Martin is best known for writing the epic fantasy series A Song of Fire and Ice, which currently comprises five novels and a sixth that is currently being written. The series was adapted into the Emmy Award-winning HBO series, Game of Thrones.
Martin: “How faithful do you have to be? Some people don’t feel that they have to be faithful at all. There’s this phrase that goes around: ‘I’m going to make it my own.’ I hate that phrase. And I think Neil probably hates that phrase, too.” Martin: “There are changes that you have to make — or that you’re called upon to make — that I think are legitimate. And there are other ones that are not legitimate.”
