The enthusiasm of the fans of the series ‘Game of Thrones‘ is still intact more than four years after the last chapter of the production was released. And now, their expectations are even more insatiable after it has been confirmed that a spin-off is being studied that will be inspired by the character of Jon Snow, played by British actor Kit Harington.
What details have been revealed about this new stage of the games of thrones and the date of its possible premiere?
It was in June last year 2022, when it was first heard about the possibility that a sequel to ‘Game of Thrones’, specifically focused on the character of Jon Snow, was on the way.
This news once again piqued the interest of millions of fans around the world. From the first announcement, it was stated that the future series would follow the Lord Commander’s life in exile, after the devastating final events of season 8.
At that time there were doubts among fans, until George R.R. Martin, creator of the story, confirmed through his personal blog that the project was completely real and that HBO was already planning everything that refers to make a series.
Actress Emilia Clarke, who plays the character of Daenerys Targaryen, also admitted that Kit Harington had told her about the project. However, she said that they had “not yet confirmed to him that it was going to be done“.
What are the new details about the Jon Snow spin-off?
George R.R. Martin himself, revealed that, like other ‘Game of Thrones’ spin-offs, Snow is in the early stages of development. This was also confirmed by a representative of the platform through a recent interview.
There, he added that there is no guarantee that the show will air, meaning that it could end up in its initial phase and never make it to a premiere. However, he also made it clear that HBO is planning how to start this new phase.
Martin also confirmed that they are now in the script stage for the pilot episode, which will determine whether the show goes further or not, or if it will be feasible to extend it. He also added that casting, pre-production, filming and editing remain to be done, if HBO gives the order to write a pilot and/or a series.
Is there a specific premiere date if the spin-off production is confirmed?
So far, no specific date has been set for the ‘Game of Thrones’ spin-off, inspired by the character of Jon Snow, to premiere on HBO. However, some experts believe that if filming is completed this year, it could see the light at the end of 2024 or early 2025.
