The feverishly anticipated House of the Dragon might not be the only program catering to George R. R. Martin and Game of Thrones fans this summer. A different Game of Thrones sequel could revive Jon Snow's (Kit Harington) character.

Currently in development, the new HBO Max show would aim to reveal where Jon Snow ended up after mercilessly murdering Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke). What's there to know about the new spin-off? Is Jon Snow about to come back to life?

Jon famously dies in Season 5 of Game of Thrones. He is then resurrected in Season 6, Episode 2, thanks to the kindness and generosity of a witch named Melisandre (Carice van Houten). Blissfully aware of his parental legacy, Jon discovers in the Season 8 premiere of Game of Thrones that he is the son of Lyanna Stark (Aisling Franciosi) and Rhaegar Targaryen (Wilf Scolding).

Further details about the Game of Thrones sequel have yet to be announced, but we will be back with updates once HBO officially announces its decision to put in a series order for the show.

House of the Dragon is far from the only Game of Thrones-related show fans should keep an eye out for.

Steve Conrad was tapped as the showrunner at the time. It appears that a release date is yet to be announced.

Bruno Heller is working on the Game of Thrones live-action, 9 Voyages (aka The Sea Snake). Amanda Segel, the executive producer of The Mist, The Player, and Person of Interest, is developing a series titled 10,000 Ships (aka Nymeria).

Martin was working on a stage play. Further announcements on the project have yet to be made.

House of the Dragon premieres on Sunday, Aug. 21, 2022, on HBO Max.
