George R. R. Martin has appeared to tease the return of Maisie Williams to the Game Of Thrones universe.
On his blog, Martin wrote about a recent trip to London in which he met Williams, who played Arya Stark in the long-running show, about an upcoming project the pair were both involved in.
“We also got together with Maisie Williams for pizza and pasta, and talked about… Well, no, better not get into that, do not want to jinx it,” Martin cryptically wrote on his blog. “But it could be so much fun,” he added.
The news comes amid reports that a new Game Of Thrones film is in early development at Warner Bros. It is not certain if this is the project Martin could be referring to. NME has reached out to representatives of Williams for comment.
Meanwhile, earlier this week (November 11), the first teaser of the Game Of Thrones spinoff series A Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms was shared. Watch the teaser above.
The upcoming show is expected to consist of six episodes and will air in 2025 on HBO. It will be an adaptation of George R.R. Martin’s novella The Hedge Knight, which is set roughly 100 years before the events of Game Of Thrones and a century after House Of The Dragon.
Peter Claffey is set to star as Ser Duncan The Tall (aka Dunk), a penniless squire who ends up a knight, alongside Dexter Sol Ansell as Egg. The series is being co-written by former House Of The Dragon writer Ira Parker, with current showrunner Ryan Condal describing the books as “a lone wolf and cub story told in this vast canvas”, in an interview with EW.
It follows on from the second season of House Of The Dragon, which aired earlier this year and has now been picked up for season three.
In a four-star review of the first season of the spin-off, NME wrote: “What is reassuring is that House Of The Dragon feels as though it is walking on solid ground: the bubbling rivalries, the jostling for power, the eruptions of violence; six episodes in, it is all coming together to create a rich stew.”
