Back in June, The Hollywood Reporter validated that Kit Harington had actually consulted with HBO to talk about a possible follow up series to Video game of Thrones— one that would include his character, Jon Snow– however absolutely nothing was formally revealed … previously. Well, sort of.
George R.R. Martin specified in a blog site post last summertime that Harington pitched the concept for a spinoff entitled Snow, a brand-new interview with Screen Rant marks the very first time that the star has actually spoken straight about the prospective follow-up series. Regretfully, it’s not the main statement fans were wishing for. “I had not truly ever discussed it, due to the fact that it remained in advancement,” Harington stated. “I didn’t desire it dripped out that it was being established, and I didn’t desire the important things to take place where individuals sort of start thinking, getting either delighted about it or disliking the concept of it, when it might never ever occur.”
Sure. We all understood about it anyhow. Simply get to the bad news currently! “Currently, it’s off the table, since all of us could not discover the ideal story to inform that we were all delighted about enough,” Harington exposed. “So, we chose to put down tools with it for the time being. There might be a time in the future where we go back to it, however at the minute, no. It’s securely on the rack.”
Damn. I think A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms won whatever war took place at HBO head office.

Package Harington supposedly pitched the Jon Snow spinoff to HBO himself.
Back in December 2022, Harington teased to Home entertainment Weekly, “I believe if you asked [Snow]he would’ve felt he left gently.” Fans might remember that Jon Snow not just eliminated his aunt/lover, Daenerys, to conserve the world from a mad queen, however he likewise kept his royal parentage a trick from Westeros. “At the end of the program when we discover him because cell, he’s preparing to be beheaded and he wishes to be. He’s done,” Harington described. “The truth he goes to the Wall is the best present and likewise the best curse. He’s got ta return as much as the location with all this history and live out his life considering how he eliminated Dany, and live out his life thinking of Ygritte passing away in his arms, and live out his life considering how he hung Olly, and live out his life thinking of all of this injury, which … that’s intriguing.
“So, I believe where we leave him at the end of the program, there’s constantly this sensation of like … I believe we desired some sort of little smile that things are alright,” the star continued. “He’s not fine.” Sure, this might all be pure opinion from Harington, however it is originating from the guy who apparently pitched Snow to HBO back in June.
