In an interview for the Wednesday series, Gwendoline Christie says she has spoken to Kit Harrington about the upcoming Jon Snow series.
While being interviewed by Access Hollywood for her role in the new Wednesday series, Gwendoline Christie offered up some jokes while also teasing that she may be involved in the upcoming Jon Snow series.
Christie teased that Kit Harrington still owes her many favours and she may be calling them in to get a spot on his character’s upcoming spinoff. On a more serious note, the actress did say that she had talked to Harrington about the show, and with Brienne being fan favourite, it is very possible that we could see her returning to the Game of Thrones universe.

The Jon Snow spinoff was confirmed earlier this year by none other than George R.R. Martin himself. Martin talked about what we can expect from the upcoming series alongside what other side-projects are currently still in development.

“Yes, there is a Jon Snow show in development. The HOLLYWOOD REPORTER story was largely correct. And I would expect no less from James Hibberd. I have dealt with a lot of reporters over the past few years, and Hibberd is one of the very best, an actual journalist who does all the things journalists are supposed to do (getting the facts right, talking to sources, respecting requests for “background only” and “off the record,” etc) that most of the clickbait sites never bother with.
Our working title for the show is SNOW.”
Next, Martin went on to give an overview of the three live-action series that have been leaked thus far.
“There are four live-action successor shows in development at HBO. Word got out about three of them some time ago. TEN THOUSAND SHIPS, the Nymeria show, helmed by Amanda Segel. SEA SNAKE, aka NINE VOYAGES, with Bruno Heller. And the Dunk & Egg show, THE HEDGE KNIGHT or KNIGHT OF THE SEVEN KINGDOMS, with Steve Conrad writing. I think some of these were officially announced; in other cases, news leaked out. (These things always seem to leak. There are so many people involved, writers, producers, agents, and everyone has assistants, and there is always the guy who runs the xerox machine, and reporters have sources, and people gossip, so… ) SNOW has been in development almost as long as the other three, but for whatever reason it was never announced and it never leaked… until now.”
