Ryan Condal

Ryan Condal is an American executive producer, screenwriter, and television show creator, known for shaping narratives in major film and television productions. After his script ‘Galahad’ was purchased by The Film Company in early 2008 and earned a spot on The Black List for 2008, Ryan Condal rapidly established himself as a sought-after screenwriter. This early recognition led to a series of high-profile writing opportunities, including an adaptation of ‘Hercules: The Thracian Wars’ for Universal Pictures, a new draft for ‘Queen & Country’ for 20th Century Fox, and a rewrite of ‘Paradise Lost’ for Legendary Pictures. Condal’s career trajectory continued with diverse scriptwriting projects, such as a film adaptation of ‘The Art of War’ for Legendary and an English-language remake of ‘Celda 211’ for CBS Films by 2012.

The series garnered significant viewership and earned a prestigious Primetime Emmy Award nomination for Outstanding Drama Series in 2023, solidifying its place as a major cultural phenomenon. Building on this success, Condal transitioned to sole showrunner for the subsequent seasons of ‘House of the Dragon’, with its much-anticipated second season premiering in June 2024. Beyond his ongoing commitment to the Westeros universe, he also holds an executive producer role for the upcoming HBO series ‘A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms’, further expanding his influence within major franchise storytelling.
