The scrapped Jon Snow Game of Thrones spin-off that would have been a sequel show starring Kit Harington is reportedly back in development – and, this time, Arya Stark might make a comeback, too.

Per The Hollywood Reporter, the series would have seen Jon Snow living north of the Wall with PTSD, without his direwolf Ghost or his sword Longclaw, which he would've discarded. We would've seen a broken Jon Snow who built cabins then burned them down, and Harington apparently wanted his iconic character to die, with no heroism for him, either.

"We are very interested and excited by the prospect of a sequel but also keenly aware of how high the bar of execution needs to be,” an insider told THR.
