VIDEO : 'Game of Thrones' Creators To Tackle The Civil War

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - The creators of HBO's hit medieval fantasy "Game of Thrones" have their next show lined for the premium cable network, but this one has no dragons or an undead army of white walkers. David Benioff and Dan Weiss, who adapted "Game of Thrones" from George R.R. Martin's "A Song of Ice and Fire" books, will write and direct original series "Confederate," HBO said on Wednesday. The announcement comes as Benioff and Weiss head into the final season of "Game of Thrones," scheduled to conclude next year.
