The last time we saw Jon Snow in season 8 of Game of Thrones, he'd returned to the Night's Watch and left Westeros behind after killing Daenerys Targaryen.
A sequel series tentatively titled Snow is still thought to be in the works, and there are lots of places that story could take the hero. Most interesting is the fact this would obviously be an original tale seeing as George R.R. Martin still hasn't finished his Song of Ice and Fire saga (never mind starting work on a follow-up).
It's been said that Kit Harrington approached the author with this sequel idea and is keen to continue telling Jon's story. The ongoing WGA strike is bound to have delayed work on the project, but fans remain keen to know how many other familiar faces are likely to appear.
During a recent interview with Extra to discuss her role in Marvel Studios' Secret Invasion, Daenerys actress Emilia Clarke shared her thoughts on possibly reprising that role in Snow.
"I don’t think so," she admitted. "Kit, I love you. I'ma watch that one because of you or I’m gonna tell you that I did, but I won’t be in it. No, I don’t think so. He hasn’t called."
This isn't massively surprising given her character's controversial demise, though Daenerys could always show up as a spectre haunting Jon or in flashbacks. For now, it doesn't look like that's the plan, but who knows what might happen as the series continues taking shape.
We've already seen a handful of Game of Thrones spin-offs fail to become a reality, so it will be interesting to see if Snow is among the shows that manage to make it past the finish line. However, if the success of House of the Dragon was any indication, fans remain heavily invested in this franchise even after the main show's divisive final season.
