Game of Thrones stars continue to have busy schedules years after the end of the show. This go-round, let’s start with some new trailers for projects starring Alfie Allen (Theon Greyjoy) and John Bradley (Samwell Tarly)!
Alfie Allen (Theon Greyjoy) stars in Steven Knight’s newest project, SAS Rogue Heroes!
Between Peaky Blinders, Taboo, and more, Steven Knight has his hand in a slew of beloved projects, and he’s not stopping anytime soon. His latest endeavor is SAS Rogue Heroes, which is inspired by real events involving the Special Forces unit during World War II. It hits screens in the fall.
Alfie Allen is part of the cast. The six-episode mini-series stars also Connor Swindells, Jack O’Connell, Sofia Boutella and Dominic West. Watch the trailer:
Can’t wait until the fall to watch it? Well, we can’t get it any earlier for you, but we can recommend the book that inspired the series: Ben Macintyre’s SAS: Rogue Heroes!
John Bradley (Sam Tarly) stars in The Railway Children Return
When you talk about classic British novels, Edith Nesbit’s The Railway Children (1906) is without a doubt near the top of the list. It’s already been adapted as a 1970 movie. On Twitter, Game of Thrones veteran John Bradley shared his excitement for a new version:

Gemma Whelan shares a behind-the-scenes shot from Gentleman Jack season 2
It feels like we’ve been waiting forever for season 1 of Gentlemen Jack, the period drama about Anne Lister costarring Game of Thrones alum Gemma Whelan (Yara Greyjoy). But rejoice: season 2 of the BBC series is currently available for streaming on Amazon Prime Video, or BBC iPlayer if you’re in the UK.
Whelan showed off her ethically homegrown costume from designers Edy and Bridge on Instagram. Take a look:
Maisie Williams pays tribute to her Pistol character
Punk Rock icon Pamela Rooke, better known as Jordan, sadly passed away on April 3 following a battle with cancer. After hearing the news, Maisie Williams — who will portray Jordan in FX’s Sex Pistols series Pistol later this year — shared a tribute to Rooke:
In the post, Williams wrote a short tribute to the punk icon:
"Jordan gave me her time and her belief. people ask me how i prepared to play her and, truthfully, it was all Jordan. from the shape of the beehive, the rhythm of my speech, to the position i held my shoulders, Jordan sculpted it all and more. We aren’t only grateful for her insight and input toward the creation of Pistol, but we owe her our respect for the impact her vision has had on the liberation of women’s bodies."
Williams looks incredible in the trailer:
Funnily enough, Maisie Williams isn’t the only Game of Thrones veteran involved in the series. Thomas Brodie-Sangster (Jojen Reed) plays band manager Malcolm McLaren. Pistol premiers on Hulu on May 31!
