Does 3 Body Problem Star John Bradley Know Anything About Kit Harington's Jon Snow Game of Thrones Spinoff?

"Well, one of those things is more in my own hands than the other, I should say," Bradley replied cryptically when asked if people are more likely to see a real-life alien invasion or a reunion between Jon and Samwell. "But it depends on what you want more. What would you prefer? I am at your service. What would you prefer? I think one thing can't be any more impossible than anything else. It's either impossible or it isn't, though … The distance between possible and impossible is massive."

Bradley appeared in 48 of the 74 episodes of Game of Thrones across all eight seasons. Samwell, or "Sam" as he's called by his friends, initially started as part of the Knight's Watch, bound by duty to live celibate lives while protecting The North from any threats from beyond The Wall, which was initially the Wildlings. Later seasons revealed a much bigger threat as the Wights, led by the Night King, laid waste to the Seven Kingdoms and the Realm. Anyone killed by them emerges resurrected – a slave to the Night King's will. Sam emerged not only as an unexpected hero but also as a renowned scholar discovering the truth of battling the undead and Jon's true lineage.

Based on the Chinese novel by Liu Chixin of the same name, 3 Body Problem goes across continents and decades as five brilliant friends make earth-shattering discoveries as the laws and science unravel and an existential threat emerges. The series, which features an ensemble cast with Benedict Wong, Jess Hong, Jovan Adepo, Eiza González, Alex Sharp, Rosalind Chao, Marlo Kelly, Sea Shimooka, Saamer Usmani, and Eve Ridley, premieres on March 21st on Netflix.
