"Game of Thrones creators David Benioff and D.B. Weiss are joining the Star Wars Galaxy.

The duo will write and produce a new series of films, Disney and Lucasfilm announced Tuesday.

The new film series will be separate from the trilogy The Last Jedi director Rian Johnson is developing, and will also stand alone from the Skywalker Saga, which J.J. Abrams is working on with the upcoming Episode IX."

If what they were capable of was shown on Game of Thrones once they no longer had Martin's source material I have zero hopes for anything they do.

I'd give them a passing grade, but regardless, apples and oranges.

Creating additional content for a specific story is surely much different than having creative freedom to tell a story in a fictional universe that we are all SO familiar with after 40 years of ideas.
