Jon Snow News Is Bad For 'Game Of Thrones' Fans
Many fans regarded him as one of the show's most beloved characters, but we must now ask if the story is truly over.
For years, there has been speculation about potential expansions of the Game of Thrones universe, particularly surrounding Jon Snow's fate. While author George R.R. Martin continues to offer new ideas, a familiar face seems to have made a clear decision.
Kit Harington has expressed that he does not intend to return as Jon Snow. In an interview, the British actor revealed that he feels little desire to slip back into the character's skin, even if given the opportunity.
Harington addressed this during the promotion of his new work for Audible, where he voices a character in the audiobook Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. When asked if he would reprise Jon Snow's role, for example in an audiobook or other project, he firmly responded that he has no interest after working on the series for ten years.
It was previously reported that a planned spin-off centered on Jon Snow was not pursued. At that time, Harington indicated that the idea originated from HBO and that a suitable story had been sought for a long time, but ultimately, it did not materialize. The project was shelved after several development rounds.
Alongside his new role as Gilderoy Lockhart in the Harry Potter audiobook, Harington continues to be active in various film and television productions. He has previously appeared in Marvel’s Eternals and will soon reprise a role in the fourth season of the HBO and BBC series Industry.
While Game of Thrones played a defining role in Harington's career, he is now fully focused on new projects outside of Westeros. His recent statements clarify that a return as Jon Snow is not currently on his agenda.
