LOS ANGELES - "Game of Thrones" showrunners David Benioff and Dan Weiss have signed a multi-year deal with Netflix to write, produce and direct new series and films for the streaming giant, the company said Wednesday.
"We are thrilled to welcome master storytellers David Benioff and Dan Weiss to Netflix," said Ted Sarandos, Netflix's chief content officer, in a statement. Netflix did not comment on reports in the Hollywood press that the contract, which followed an intense bidding war between major studios, was a "nine-figure deal."
In a statement of their own, Benioff and Weiss said: "We've had a beautiful run with HBO for more than a decade and we're grateful to everyone there for always making us feel at home."
