The game might not be over for Jon Snow.

British newspapers are reporting while HBO's swords-and-sorcery epic Game of Thrones is set to end next year, a spinoff for Kit Harington's popular character is in the works.

And he might not be the only one coming back from the dead.

"Any spin-off built around Jon Snow, who is hugely popular with fans, would also undoubtedly involve other characters from the cast," an unnamed senior executive at HBO told the Daily Express.

But making it happen could be trickier than getting the Starks and Lannisters to settle their differences.

"One of the hardest things in showbiz is trying to keep an ensemble cast together and there's no doubt that, when Thrones finally comes to a close, most members will head off to pursue fresh projects."

In April, creator George RR Martin, who writes the books the show is based on, said there was a "whole world of stories waiting to be told" if HBO wanted them -- perhaps as standalone movies.
