Description

A prequel is a story that takes place before the events of a well-known work, exploring the origins of characters, settings, or events. It adds depth to the original by offering context and understanding. Prequels can change audience expectations, moving from uncertainty to curiosity about how things came to be, creating a different kind of suspense. They can also show character development, explaining their choices and actions. However, creating a successful prequel requires a balance between honoring the original and introducing new elements. They must also avoid contradicting the established lore. Successful prequels like Star Wars and Harry Potter have expanded their universes and introduced new generations to these beloved worlds. Comparable works include George Lucas - Star Wars, J.K. Rowling - Harry Potter
