People: Maisie Williams Is Excited There’s ‘So Much Story to Tell’ in a Games of Thrones Jon Snow Spin-Off

HBO is reportedly in the early stages of developing a live-action Game of Thrones spin-off series based on Kit Harington’s Jon Snow

Maisie Williams is just as hyped as Game of Thrones fans are that Kit Harington’s Jon Snow may soon be back on screen in his own series.

“Everything surrounding the story [of GOT] is very exciting,” Williams told PEOPLE exclusively this week while attending the Cannes Lions Festival with Spotify.

“We had such a rich show, and there’s still so much story to tell,” continued the 25-year-old actress, who played Snow’s sibling Arya Stark throughout all eight seasons of the series.

“I think it’s really exciting, and I think that Kit is such a phenomenal actor. Him playing Jon Snow was just like a cultural reset,” added Williams, who recently launched the podcast Frank Film Club with Maisie Williams, which is available on Spotify. “I think everything that he touches is magic, and I’m excited to see what it’s going to be.”

Since Thrones concluded, Harington has appeared in a slew of screen projects, including the Marvel Cinematic Universe film Eternals and Amazon Studios’ Modern Love. He also appeared on stage in the National Theater’s live production of Henry V.

Earlier this month, The Hollywood Reporter shared that HBO is in the early stages of developing the live-action GOT spin-off based on Snow.

Harington, 35, is attached to reprise the iconic role — which earned him two Emmy nominations — if the project move forward to a series, per THR.

In GOT’s final season, Snow learned he was a potential heir to the Iron Throne before he was exiled from Westeros and began a new journey elsewhere.

Should a Snow-centered series come to fruition, Williams could technically reprise her role of Arya — but would she be open to starring in her own sequel series?

“It’s obviously a very exciting prospect,” Williams told PEOPLE, “so never say never.”

As far as potential storylines that an Arya-focused spin-off could mine, Williams said she has yet “to really discover” what she’d like to see next — but diehard viewers are giving her plenty of ideas.

“I’m still learning so much from fans that I meet … and they’re always recounting the parts of the show that they love, the parts of the show that were meaningful for them and the parts of Arya’s journey that were meaningful for them,” Williams shared. “I feel like I’m learning it all for the first time in a way right now.”

“So I’m still kind of piecing together what I think it should be, what I think would make people happy, and what I think would be fulfilling as well, as an actor, to do some kind of transition,” she added. “We can’t just do the same thing that we did — it’s got to be new. But what are the parts that we would want to take with us and what are the parts that we would do differently? So I think I’m still kind of discovering that.”

Maisie Williams: “There’s A Lot Of Death” in Season 8

We’re just a few weeks away from the Game of Thrones season 8 premiere, and Maisie Williams (Arya Stark) is stirring the pot by speaking to Entertainment Weekly. “There’s a lot of death this year,” she said.

We’ve heard about how the opening of season 8 will mimic the opening of season 1, with Daenerys and her entourage arriving at Winterfell much as King Robert and his arrived back in the series premiere. To hear Williams tell it, the comparisons go deeper than that. “After reading the scripts I went back and watched season 1 again because so much of it refers back to that season,” she said. “There are so many scenes that will look similar.”

And also I watched just to remind myself of the arc I’ve taken already. I wanted Arya to go full circle and try for some kind of normalcy like when she was younger. Basically this year it’s like she has a dual personality — there are so many emotions and memories that come flooding back when you’re with your family and the things that you fight for become very different, yet she’s also remaining on this path to try and kill Cersei and remembering her list and getting closer to that. So there’s this split with Arya between trying to be who she wants to be — getting back to the naïveté and innocence with her family — and unfinished business.

Williams also had some thoughts about standing unified with Sansa, played by her real-life best friend Sophie Turner. “It’s not often you see a character siding with Sansa who’s not manipulating her.”

Last season it was really tough for Sansa because Jon was thinking with his penis and it kind of made Sansa look bitter. This season you see Arya teaming with Sansa and sometimes calling out Jon. It felt nice and powerful to stand next to Sophie. Sophie and I are the tightest of friends when sitting across from anyone, so no acting required.

Ah, so Arya is going to call out Jon’s reasons for bending the knee to Daenerys? I’m already looking forward to that drama.

But let’s get back to death. Arya’s always been a bit of a prodigy when it comes to killing, but in seven seasons, she’s never taken part in any major battles. In season 8, that changes. “I feel like I’ve always been a part of this big show but in terms of being part of the episodes that really define us, this is my first taste of it.”

And finally, there’s the ending. “People don’t want it to end,” Williams said, as if we didn’t already know all too well. “No matter how you end it, people don’t want it to end. So the ending is not going to be okay, because ‘the end’ is not okay. You know what I mean? I think the way we end it is right. And I think it’s time.”

When Game of Thrones does end on May 19, Williams already has jobs lined up, and she’s thankful her time on the show trained her for what’s next in her career.

I’m nervous about what comes next and just want to prove myself as an actor now and make the most of this series. There are not many opportunities to do everything with one character and there’s a whole spectrum I get to do. So whatever happens after, I made this count.

Yes you did. Game of Thrones season 8 premieres on April 14.
