The ‘World of Ice and Fire’ is a whole new wild universe created by George RR Martin – a huge portion of which still remains unexplored. If you don’t believe me, take a look at the known world’s map created by George – Sothoryos, Ulthos, and many more places never heard of!

Unseen Westeros Exhibition coming to Berlin in January 2019

Probably there’s much time to learn about them, especially with the “Unseen Westeros Exhibition” happening in January 2019 in Berlin.  The final season of Game of Thrones will be coming in the first half of 2019 and a popular opinion suggests the prequel might start filming the next year as well.

Latest update on the prequel under development is that the British actress Naomi Wattsas rumored by recapped.com has been cast for it. As published on the website:

“Rumor is Naomi Watts has been cast in the Game of Thrones prequel series. No idea who Naomi is playing and there are no plot details available. The only thing we know is they want British actors for all of the roles or actors with a perfect British accent. The pilot is set to shoot early next year so we should be getting some cast announcements soon.”

You may know Naomi Watts for portraying the role of Ann Darrow in the movie King Kong (2005) or Maria in the Impossible (2012). If the rumor of the prequel titled ‘Empire of Ash’ is to be believed, we would love to watch her play a noble lady of House Targaryen from Valyria – from the times before the rise of ‘Aegon the Conqueror’.

George R. R. Martin gives an update on ‘The Winds of Winter’ and ‘House of the Dragon’

The Coronavirus shutdown has brought life to a standstill, and when it comes to entertainment, we can expect all the highly anticipated TV series, movies, literature and music releases to be delayed. For Game of Thrones fans, it was the best book, The Winds of Winter and the Game of Thrones prequel series, House of the Dragon. Creator George R. R. Martin recently gave us an update on both of those. Read on!

George has been posting updates on his Not a Blog, and more so during the Coronavirus quarantine. He had announced the temporary closure of his bookstore and cinema hall, and more recently said that the lockdown only gives him more time to finish The Winds of Winter. The latest post gave us a little update on on what he has been up to:

“I am still up in the mountains, doing the social distancing rag, and writing WINDS OF WINTER.   I have good days and bad days, but I am making progress.”

He said that his store and cinema will stay closed till at least June 1, following which he will reconsider the decision. He then discussed the effect of the Coronavirus situation on the entertainment industry:

“Hollywood has largely closed down as well, at least as far as actual production is concerned.  (If this pandemic goes on long enough, I wonder if the pipeline will go dry, and we will start to run out of new films and television shows.  If so, sheltering in place is going to get an order of magnitude harder.  Television right now is doing a lot to keep us all sane — and no, not the news, which has the opposite effect).”

He then gave an update on The Winds of a Winter and House of the Dragon:

“The only thing I am writing myself is THE WINDS OF WINTER, as I have said many times… but with my producer’s hat on, I am still involved in a number of exciting new shows for HBO, and a few film projects as well.  When and if any of these make it to the screen, well, that’s always the question… but I do know that Ryan Condal and his team are roaring ahead on the scripts for HOUSE OF THE DRAGON, and that one has a full season’s order from HBO.  As for the other stuff I may or may not be involved in, I could tell you, but then I’d have to kill you all.”

Well, it looks like Game of Thrones fans might not have to wait that much longer. What do you guys think? Talk to us in the comments, down below!

Sophie Turner did Joe Jonas' makeup during quarantine and showed it off on Instagram

Life is an arena full of diverse chores, some that we choose, some that we have to do. The current period of social distancing and self-isolation has brought forth what we always seemed to lack, Time! People who were earlier very busy now have a lot of spare time. Different people are choosing to spend it in different ways. Our lovely Game of Thrones star, Sophie Turner (Sansa Stark) has been a constant in showing us fun ways to pass our time during this quarantine. And she has come up with yet another beautiful activity. Sophie did her husband, Joe Jonas’ makeup and flaunted it on Instagram.

Turner posted photos on her Instagram stories, showing off Joe’s makeover. In the first of the two, the Jonas Brothers’ member can be seen with an eyeshadow of pinkish-purple color around his eyes. “He finally let me do his makeup,” Sophie captioned it. The amount of color looks just right, making it stylish as well as classy. The Queen in the North certainly follows the rule, less is more!

In the second photo, Joe Jonas offers his side profile, and we see a hint of glitter on his temples (sides of the head). An excited Sophie went gaga over her own work here, writing, “That highlight”. Again, it’s only a bit of that glitter that’s doing the magic. The English actress has indeed got some serious fashion skills. Moreover, it seems Sophie has chosen a perfect model for herself; as Joe has posed with great poise in both the pictures. The second photo also revealed that he was probably busy playing a videogame on his console, while she clicked the photos.

It looks like the couple is enjoying their time together. Sophie had recently told us more about her quarantine days during a video chat with TV host Conan O’Brien. There, we found out that Joe is doing a stay-at-home DJ bit on Instagram; whereas Sophie dresses him up for his online sets and also pours drinks for her singer-songwriter husband. Sophie’s online activities have made us imagine the Jonas-Turner household as a place of merrymaking.

The duo tied the knot in two marriage ceremonies last year, and are reportedly expecting their first child in the middle of this year’s summer. With all the fun and games, we expect the baby to be happy and healthy.

Maisie Williams wants the fans to watch her play Animal Crossing

These are unusual times for humankind. Never in the history of mankind so many people have had to stay indoors at the same time. With countries increasing the lockdown periods further, we are in for a long haul and that has resulted in people reacting differently. Celebrities too are reacting to it in a different way and Maisie Williams a.k.a. Arya Stark of Game of Thrones is one of them. Read on to find out more!

As per Heavy, Williams is loving the game of Animal Crossing so much that she wants to stream it to her fans. In fact, she recently took to her twitter and asked her followers about she can go about streaming the game. While the answers seem to have been a bit too technical for her liking, we feel she will find her way. What say?

She wrote:

“So like how do you use Twitch and what do I need to get? I want people to watch me play Animal Crossing”

When some of the fans replied to her, it got a bit too much for her. She replied:

“This is too much for my pea head aaaah so many letters.”

It seems like most of the Williams work is going to be streamed nowadays anyways. While her movie The New Mutants got pushed yet again, her stage debut was streamed on Instagram following the Coronavirus outbreak.

The New Mutants was supposed to be released on April 3rd but has been pushed yet again indefinitely. Fans would have been disappointed by that but one thing is for sure, the wait is going to be worthwhile, looking at the stories coming out from the movie. Williams is going to feature in a same-sex relationship in the movie which is going to be first of its kind for a Marvel Cinematic Universe.

She is sure going to keep her fans on their toes in the coming months! What are your reactions to the news? Have you played the game? If yes, what are you waiting for? Suggest Williams the ways to stream fast!
