Game Of Thrones
Summary
Game of Throneshas several spinoffs in the whole caboodle , but the Jon Snow sequel is unequaled in a risky way of life that explain why HBO is take so long with it . The cable’s length turnout was discussing ways to remain explore Westeros even beforeGame of Thrones ' ending , with the first , House of the Dragon , ultimately releasing in 2022 . The prequel was a clear success , andHouse of the Dragonseason 2is coming in 2024 , with more on the agency .
Arguably the most surprisingGame of Thronesspinoff show in - growth is the Jon Snow continuation , which is destine to bring back Kit Harington and resume his story after going back beyond the Wall in season 8 , installment 6 , " The Iron Throne . " AlthoughGame of Thrones ' Jon Snow spinoffwas first report in 2022 , it still has n’t received a green light from HBO . The internet is taking its prison term in developing the show , and while that ’s surprising given it has a uncoerced star and very solid connection to the original , it ’s at last for the best .
Jon Snow Is The First Game Of Thrones Spinoff Not Based On Anything GRRM Has Done
Unlike the otherGame of Thronesspinoffs in the works , theJon Snow sequel is not adapted from or based on anything that George R. R. Martin has writtenin any way , other than go along the journey of a character he created ( whose own end he has n’t yet gotten to).House of the DragonadaptsFire & Blood , Martin ’s in - universe history book , and various other spinoffs are found on different number of history he ’s give away over the class , either throughA Song of Ice and Fire , The World of Ice and Firebook , Fire & Blood , or elsewhere .
Of course , Jon Snow ’s story will continue inThe breaking wind of WinterandA Dream of Spring , but it ’s likely that it will take him to the same destination asGame of Thronesseason 8 ( albeit by a very different route).It ’s hard to imagine Martin drop a line anything that continues Jon Snow ’s journeying after that point , especially as , for all its faults , itisa fitting fate for the character . Even if he did , he certainly would n’t know what it would entail yet , when he remain at oeuvre onThe Winds of Winter , whereas development is underway on the Jon Snow show . That think it ’s find to be entirely new , with no blueprint at all to function from .
Game of Thrones' Jon Snow Sequel Taking So Long Is A Good Thing
Ultimately , it ’s a good sign that HBO is n’t rushing Jon Snow ’s spinoff . That ’s true of any show , of course , and would be even if Martin had compose an integral novel about Jon ’s adventures after hisA Song of Ice and Firestory . However , it ’s particularly true in this fount when there ’s no roadmap for the plot of land . Game of Thronestook a downward turn when it overtook Martin ’s books , and only had a gravelly schema to work from , knowing where things were to end up but not how to get there . That only make uncollectible when it hurtled towards that endgame instead of the patient frame - up for which it had been cognise .
Game of ThronesandHouse of the Dragonare available to stream on Max .
With all of that , then taking the time to get Jon Snow ’s subsequence right becomes not only promising , but vital . After all , this is the show that has the clearest connection yet toGame of Thrones . A spinoff about one of the main type would , in terms of aggregative appealingness , be an easygoing sell to potential audiences , and so trying to cash - in on that would n’t precisely be surprising . That HBO is n’t doing so is the best possible way to approach this continuation . If it does n’t happen , it mean the story was n’t right ; if it does , then , in theory , it ’ll mean it ’s get over its biggest challenge .
