‘Game Of Thrones’ creator George RR Martin reveals sequel’s working title

The Game of Thrones sequel starring Kit Harington will be called Snow, author George R.R. Martin says. “Yes, there is a Jon Snow show in the development,” Martin wrote in his personal blog on Thursday. “Our working title for the show is Snow,” he added.

In the blog, the author, on whose books the award-winning blockbuster was based, shared a few more details. Reiterating what the series’ star Emilia Clarke said, Martin shared it was Harington himself who initiated the idea for the new show. “Yes, it was Kit Harrington who brought the idea to us. I cannot tell you the names of the writers/show-runners, since that has not been cleared for release yet…,” Martin noted.

The trio of previously announced Game Of Thrones spinoffs in the works are the Amanda Segal-directed 10,000 Ships; 9 Voyages aka Sea Snake from Bruno Heller; and the Steve Conrad-penned Dunk and Egg prequel series titled either The Hedge Knight or Knight of the Seven Kingdoms.

The first prequel series, House of the Dragon, stars Matt Smith, Olivia Cooke, Emma D’Arcy, Steve Toussaint, Eve Best, Fabien Frankel, Sonoya Mizuno and Rhys Ifans. It is set to premiere August 21. — IANS
