Will Samwell Reunite With Jon Snow? (Photo Credit – Instagram)
John Bradley, known for portraying Samwell Tarly in Game of Thrones, suggests the potential for reuniting with Kit Harington in the speculated Jon Snow spinoff series. Despite the widespread acclaim garnered by the HBO fantasy series, which aired from 2011 to 2019, and the success of its prequel House of the Dragon, concrete developments regarding the Jon Snow spinoff have yet to materialize since rumors emerged in 2021.
During an interview with ComicBook.com, Bradley discussed his upcoming Netflix series “3 Body Problem” and, when questioned about the possibility of definitive proof of alien life versus a reunion between Sam and Jon, opted not to commit to either scenario.

[This story contains mild spoilers for Creed III.]
Tessa Thompson isn’t afraid to say no. Whether it’s now with Creed III or in the past, she will speak up if something doesn’t feel right to her on a character level.
In Ryan Coogler’s Rocky franchise spinoff and legacy sequel, Creed (2015), one of the most memorable scenes involves Thompson’s Bianca and Michael B. Jordan’s Adonis “Donnie” Creed going out for Philly cheesesteaks. During their first meal together, Bianca explains the meaning of the word “jawn” to the L.A.-minded Donnie, which is Philadelphia slang for any type of noun. But now, with Creed III’s time jump of seven years, the Creeds consider Los Angeles their home, and so they’ve become different people in some ways. Thus, Thompson made it clear that Bianca had to lose the colloquialism of her past.
