Game Of Thrones Jon Snow Series Not Moving Ahead
The Game of Thrones spin-off series focused on Jon Snow is no longer in the works. Kit Harington himself, who played Snow on the HBO show, confirmed the news to ScreenRant.
He said the show is not currently in the works. “It’s off the table because we all couldn’t find the right story to tell that we were all excited about enough.” So it was decided stop development “for the time being.” Harington said he hopes there could be a time “in the future” where he returns to the idea. “But at the moment, no. It’s firmly on the shelf,” he said.
A report in 2022 said HBO was considering a Jon Snow series, and author George R.R. Martin later confirmed this and said it was Harington’s idea. However, in Hollywood, development means just that–a show is being developed. As part of the development process, the team decides if it should or can be seen through release by experimenting with story ideas and concepts, among other things. In the case of the Jon Snow series, Harington and the team apparently didn’t find enough compelling material to move forward, so they aren’t.
