Actress Maisie Williams will always be remembered for playing Arya Stark in Game of Thrones and now she talks about the new series starring Jon Snow.
It has recently been confirmed that Jon Snow (Kit Harington) will have his own Game of Thrones spin-off series called Snow. Actress Emilia Clarke who played Daenerys Targaryen already gave her opinion, which you can read here. Now it’s Maisie Williams’ turn, and we leave you her words below:
“Everything around the story of Game of Thrones is so exciting… We had such a rich show and there’s still so much story to tell. I think it’s really exciting, and I think Kit Harington is such a phenomenal actor. Him playing Jon Snow was like a cultural reservoir… I think everything he touches is magical. So, I’m excited to see what it’s going to be.”
Aside from Maisie Williams, another actress from the series spoke on the subject. As Gwendoline Christie, who played Brienne of Tarth, said: “I love the sound of the Jon Snow spin-off. I really love it. I also loved watching Game of Thrones. It’s so amazing to feel this wave of interest that people are still so interested, and that love is still so real. I think a lot of people feel like they would love to see that story continue.”
George R.R. Martin himself will be working on the series as he said: “Our working title for the show is SNOW. I’m involved, as I am with other spin-off series like THE HEDGE KNIGHT, THE SEA SNAKE and TEN THOUSAND SHIPS, and all the animated shows. Kit Harington’s team visited me here in Santa Fe and worked with me and my own team of brilliant and talented writers/consultants to forge the show.”
It would also be a great idea for Maisie Williams to have her own series, so we could find out what happened to Arya Stark, years after the main events.
Game of Thrones expands, but first we’ll have to watch the series The House of the Dragon coming to HBO Max on 22 August 2022.
