We know there’s a massive void in your life since ‘Game of Thrones’ has ended… for now. Most of us are still taken aback by the various plot twists presented in the show, one of them being the astounding chemistry between Jon and Dany and we’re really gonna miss them onscreen, till they’re back again with a ‘bang’.  But fret not GoT lovers and lurkers alike, we may not be seeing both of them together but we will sure as hell see Snow in a completely new avatar.

Kit Harrington is going to be starring soon in a short BBC drama series called ‘Gunpowder’, which will be aired this autumn. It may not be as thrilling and nerve gripping as ‘Game of Thrones’ is for us but it’s definitely going to take us back in time, again. The 17th century drama is centred on the Gunpowder plot which was an attempted assassination of King James I of England. It’s not all that boring and we’re sure that this series has its own set of plot twists too. Plus you get to see Kit, all over again. Also, did you know the main protagonist in the show, Robert Catesby, the leader of the Gunpowder plot is actually Kit Harrington’s maternal descendant? No we’re not kidding. We believe this and the fact that he looks hot as hell in sheepskin cloaks, strappy boots and sexy tunics and fedoras is the reason he was cast in the show in the first place. Don’t get us wrong, we’re not ruling out his acting abilities. Check out the teaser below

The trailer starts with Jon, oops we mean Robert Catesby narrating how his loved ones were killed and tortured and how his name was dragged through the mud and how he wishes to seek revenge by killing the king. Sounds really familiar doesn’t it? Well we certainly hope we can pull away from Snow’s character and give himself a chance to grow into Robert Catesby’s character instead. Who really knows? Catesby might make such an impact that we might forget Snow, in the next two years. Yeah right, like that’s ever gonna happen!

Unsurprisingly though, people are quite stoked about this show and waiting with bated breath for its release.

Pictures of ‘Game Of Thrones’ author George RR Martin from his younger days have surfaced and are making fans go crazy. The reason – he looks uncannily similar to Jon Snow, the brooding stylish hero of ‘Game Of Thrones’ the show. The same soft locks, shy smile and deep eyes. George RR Martin is Jon Snow!

It won’t be wrong to assume then that Jon Snow is here to stay and do greater things. It’s been widely assumed that Samwell Tarly was the author’s voice. But these pictures of Martin tell a different story for sure.

Turns out Jon Snow does know something! 

King of The North who’s name is Martin

Now fans are using this resemblance to predict Jon Snow’s future on the show. Rest assured Snow is not gonna die anytime soon. While of course the resemblance is a coincidence – the books were written way before the show and way before Kit Harrington was signed on for the role of Jon Snow. But perhaps some casting director or produce had a clever sense of humour? We can only guess!
