The first official Game of Thrones fan convention kicked off this weekend in Los Angeles, where many stars from both the original series and House of Dragon showed up . Kit Harington is also attending the event, so many fans suspected that he would officially announce information about the Jon Snow spin-off series.
HBO has released a new video about Jon Snow, the character played by Kit Harington throughout Game of Thrones .
While Harington has not officially announced his return to the role, his comments regarding the series finale have raised some eyebrows.
At the end of the series, when we find him in his cell, he’s getting ready to be beheaded and he wants it. The fact that he goes to the Wall is the greatest gift and at the same time the greatest curse. He has to go back to the place with all its history and live his life thinking about how he killed Dany, about Ygritte dying in his arms, and how he hanged Olly. He has to deal with a lot of trauma and I think it’s an interesting topic. The finale of his story evoked positive feelings among the viewers, but nothing is really right with him.
Kit Harington said.
Harington said later in 2020 that he was done playing characters like Jon Snow. In an interview with The Telegraph, Harington spoke about men having an emotional “block” which is not something he wants to continue to portray in his work.
I have the impression that emotionally men have a problem that comes from World War II, passed from grandfather to father to son. We don’t talk about how we feel because that shows weakness and lack of masculinity. After portraying a man who was quiet and heroic, I feel that’s not the role I want to play. The world needs to see more depth in male characters.
Who’s working on a Jon Snow spin-off?
During an interview with Variety earlier this year, Game of Thrones star Emilia Clarke (Daenerys Targaryen) confirmed that a Jon Snow spin-off is in development and that Harington himself is developing the series.
It was created by Kit, if I understand correctly, so he is involved from scratch. So what you’re going to see, hopefully if it does, is certified by Harington.
Clarke said.
Kit Harington has seen Bloodline Dragon ?
During an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Harington was asked about the Game of Thrones spinoff , House of the Dragon . At the time, he admitted that he was a few episodes behind, but called the show “brilliant” and said he liked how the creators decided to continue the franchise’s story.
I’m halfway through the season. I need to watch the second half so I’ll try to avoid any spoilers. The whole team did a brilliant job. I am impressed with how they develop the world of Game of Thrones .
