Per the same report, Miguel also has a first-look deal with HBO, which will give him creative leeway to develop new projects. He will, however, still be an executive producer on House of the Dragon for the rest of the series. Naturally, fans immediately speculated that Miguel left to work on another highly anticipated Game of Thrones spinoff — the Jon Snow sequel.
