Empire Magazine Issue 405 (September 2022) Game of Thrones Returns!

How do you follow up the biggest TV series of all time? You double down on dragons. Fantasy juggernaut Game Of Thrones changed the televisual landscape forever – and now House Of The Dragon is about to take audiences back to Westeros once more for a different era of political mayhem and pyrotechnics, set 200 years before its parent show and depicting the downfall of the Targaryen family.

House Of The Dragon - More dragons. An Iron-ier Throne. A fresh batch of brutal backstabbers. House Of The Dragon is about to unleash a whole new age of Westeros, with a flame-breathing flavour all its own. Empire gets the inside story on its epic production with Dragon wranglers Miguel Sapochnik and Ryan Condal, and stars Paddy Considine, Emma D’Arcy, Olivia Cooke, Matt Smith and Rhys Ifans.

Andor - Godspeed, Rebels! The latest Star Wars series on Disney+ delves deep into the rising rebellion against the Empire, centred on Diego Luna’s conflicted Rogue One hero Cassian Andor. Empire talks creating a political thriller in the galaxy far, far away with creator Tony Gilroy, and stars Diego Luna, Genevieve O’Reilly, and Fiona Shaw.

The Woman King - Director Gina Prince-Bythewood and producer-star Viola Davis have teamed up to deliver a historical war epic like no other – telling the story of the Agoijie, aka the Dahomey Amazons, an all-female Black military force from 1800s West Africa. Empire delves into the untold history with Davis, Prince-Bythewood, Lashana Lynch, Sheila Atim, Thuso Mbedu and more.

Flight Of The Conchords Reunion - Hold onto your sugarlumps – in a major new interview, Empire reunited Flight Of The Conchords duo Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie to reflect on 15 years of ‘Foux du Fafa’, ‘Business Time’ and beyond. The pair look back on the chaotic creation of their HBO comedy series, the time they played for the Lord Of The Rings cast, and those Bert and Ernie comparisons – with a brand new shoot by Dean Mackenzie and illustrations by Chris Bianchi.

Scott Adkins - British action star Scott Adkins has been kicking ass on screen for decades – but his breakthrough moment has always eluded him. In a major, revealing Empire interview, he talks his action heroes, injuries, achievements, and why he’s doubling down his ambitions to keep on fighting and become a household name.

Gods Among Us: Samuel L. Jackson - Next up on our list of Hollywood icons, we celebrate the career of Samuel L. Jackson – from his myriad Quentin Tarantino collaborations, to the Star Wars prequels, his role as Nick Fury in the MCU, Jurassic Park, M. Night Shyamalan’s Unbreakable and Glass, and much more.
