Kit Harington, the actor who played Jon Snow in Game of Thrones, has revealed that the planned spin-off project is currently on hold due to the inability to find the right story that excites everyone involved. Harington mentioned that while there may be a possibility of revisiting the project in the future, it is currently not in development.
Harington said the project is currently “off the table, because we all couldn’t find the right story to tell that we were all excited about enough.” He continued: “So, we decided to lay down tools with it for the time being. There may be a time in the future where we return to it, but at the moment, no. It’s firmly on the shelf.”
There was never a big announcement about the potential spin-off, with news of it only trickling out in 2022 whencreator George R.R. Martin confirmed some swirling rumors. On his website, Martin wrote that the show was “in development,” but emphasized that HBO had not given it a green light. When asked for an update on the show, Harington spoke of his own reticence to discuss it previously for pretty much the same reason. “I hadn’t really ever spoken about it, because it was in development,” he said. “I didn’t want it leaked out that it was being developed, and I didn’t want the thing to happen where people kind of start theorizing, getting either excited about it or hating the idea of it, when it may never happen.
