The DnD Movie Was Inspired By One Iconic HBO Show (& It's Not GoT)

Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves co-director John Francis Daley explains the unusual HBO series they used as inspiration for the film.

Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves took inspiration from a very surprising HBO series. The film presents an original story and characters but is set in the wide world of the tabletop fantasy role-playing game Dungeons & Dragons, which was originally released in 1974. It follows a crew of adventurers including a bard , a barbarian , a sorcerer , and a tiefling druid who team up to take down the duplicitous Lord of Neverwinter .

I’ve used this very bizarre example because it is so different tonally, but what was so incredible about The Wire was that these characters would talk shop and you had absolutely no idea what they were saying. But you understood the intention behind it, and after a while, you’d start to inadvertently learn the language. And so that was a fun way to inundate audiences without alienating them.
