Writer ‘House of the Dragon’ may appear in the series himself

Writer George RR Martin has hinted he’s interested in making a cameo appearance in his House of the Dragon movie adaptation. Martin was initially supposed to make a brief appearance in the first episode of Game of Thrones, but that episode was completely scrapped and re-filmed, the cameo was never made.

Busy writing

After what fans say was a disappointing end to Game of Thrones (2011–2019), HBO Max regained trust with House of the Dragon (2022‑ ). The writer is currently working on his new book A Dance With Dragons, which should be almost finished. In a recent interview, Martin was asked if he would be interested in a brief appearance on his own series again. The answer was that the interest is definitely there, but that he is putting it off until he has finished writing.
