British actors Emilia Clarke and Kit Harington became two of the most famous and recognizable faces on television thanks to their blockbuster series Game Of Thrones. While Clarke played the pivotal role of Queen Daenerys Targaryen in the show, Harington impressed audiences with his portrayal of Jon Snow. Through the various seasons of the series based on the books by George R.R. Martin, Clarke, and Harington had audiences glued to the screens.
With the show ending after a successful 8-season run, the two stars moved on to their next big collaboration with the Marvel franchise. While Emilia Clarke plays a Skrull named G’iah in the Disney+ series Secret Invasion, Harington was last seen in Eternals in which his character Dane Whitman is anticipated to become the Black Knight in the future. But it could be that fans may be treated to more of Jon Snow in the future according to Emilia Clarke.

Fans of Kit Harington and Jon Snow may just get the opportunity to see their favorite character back on screen again after Game of Thrones ended.

Emilia Clarke’s Take On Game Of Thrones Season 8 Backlash
One of the main reasons that Game Of Thrones became such a massive hit was due to Emilia Clarke’s portrayal of the graceful and vulnerable Daenerys Targaryen. Clarke, who has been a mainstay in the show since Season 1, has been an audience favorite from the very beginning. Therefore, when her character met her death in the way she did in Season 8 of Game of Thrones, fans were up in arms to demand justice for her with a better ending. Clarke also agreed with the audience but proved her professionalism and said,
“I get why people were p****d. I totally get it. But, me being the actor, you can’t do justice to the character that you poured your blood, sweat, and tears into for a decade without getting on the same page. So like, I’m not just going to be there being like, ‘Fine, I’ll do the scene, whatever. I’m so p***ed.’ You have to turn up.”
Despite the turmoil centered around Game Of Thrones, the show’s reputation and depth of narrative have still made it one of the most popular television series of all time, along with making Emilia Clarke a superstar.
