With the spin-off officially off the cards, hopes of diving deeper into the Land Of Always Winter, which many theorized would’ve be explored in the canned spin-off, is now out of the equation.

TheJon SnowSpin-off Could’ve Revealed What Lies Beyond the Land of Winters

The Land of Always Winter, the northernmost part of Westeros, is frigid and inhospitable even for the wildings, with White Walkers being the only ones to resist the unforgiving conditions. But with them gone, and Jon Snow being exiled from Westeros inGOT‘s ending, many theorized the canned show would’ve delved deeper to reveal what lies beyond it.

Considering in the 1st book, when Bran is in a coma, he sees a glimpse of what lies beyond the walls, whichhe refers to as the“heart of winter”, we might’ve gotten some answers if the show had happened.

Finally addressing the speculations surrounding theJon Snowspin-off,Kit Haringtonelaborated on why the series was called off. WhileGeorge R.R. Martinrevealedthat it was the actor himself, who instigated the idea of the spin-off, the Emmy-nominated star explained they didn’t have the right story to justify its existence.

Furthermore, theHow to Train Your Dragonstar revealed his reasoning behind not breaking his silence on the reports surrounding theJon Snowspin-off. The actor explained he didn’t appreciate the reports about the show’s development being leaked, as he didn’t want fans to start theorizing and getting excited about the show before it was moving forward.

He toldScreen Rant:

“I hadn’t really ever spoken about it, because it was in development… I didn’t want it leaked out that it was being developed. I didn’t want the thing to happen where people kind of start theorizing, getting either excited about it or hating the idea of it, when it may never happen. Because in development, you look at every angle, and you see whether it’s worth it.”

Harington isn’t wrong, as fans are reasonably disappointed following the cancellation of the show, which was never certain from the get-go.
