And yet, Jon Snow still won’t know anything because there won’t be a series about him

Kit Harington announced in an interview with ScreenRant while promoting his film Blood and Blood that a Game of Thrones spin-off centered around Jon Snow is “out of the question.” Representatives of the station provided commentary to Variety.

Kit Harrington: The idea is definitely shelved

Harrington was supposed to help assemble the team that worked on developing his idea, but as he now admits, “they couldn’t find the right story to tell,” so the project is no longer in active development. He admitted that he did not want to talk about potential production earlier when it was in the initial phase, but at the moment that path is closed. The actor said:

There may be a time in the future when we return to this, but not at this time. The idea is definitely shelved.

It’s a shame, because Harrington would have at least one Game of Thrones actor on board. Last year, Liam Cunningham said in an interview that he would love to play Sir Davos Seaworth again and even texted Harrington about it. – I wish the best of luck to everyone involved, and if the check is big enough, I might even show up again! – he said.

Those who watched Game of Thrones know that it ended with Jon Snow being exiled from Westeros. Together with the direwolf Ghost and the Wildlings, he entered the Haunted Forest to start a new life there. Many fans assumed that the spin-off would tell the story of Snow’s adventures with the Wildlings.

The “Game of Thrones” universe – what does it look like now?

This is not the first idea related to George RR Martin’s books that will not make it to the screens. “Bloodmoon” was canceled in 2019, . “Sea Snake/Nine Voyages” and “Ten Thousand Ships” also suffered a similar fate. The main character of the first series was to be young Corlys Velaryon.

For now, fans of the “Game of Thrones” universe can only wait for the return of “Rom of the Dragon”. The second season of the prequel is scheduled to premiere this summer. The cast of the second season of the series includes: Matt Smith, Olivia Cooke, Emma D’Arcy, Eve Best, Steve Toussaint, Fabien Frankel and Ewan Mitchell, Tom Glynn-Carney, Sonoya Mizuno, Rhys Ifans, Harry Collett, Bethany Antonia and Phoebe Campbell .

Recently, HBO also announced a production in which the fate of Aegon I Targaryn and the story of his conquest of Westeros will be presented, as well as those contained in the volume “Tales of the Seven Kingdoms”. At the moment, the series is titled “A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms: The Wandering Knight”, and the plot presented in it will be set about a hundred years before the events of “Game of Thrones”.
