Game of Thrones claim to fame actor Maisie Williams confirmed that she was ready to star in Game of Thrones spin-off if only provisions for better costumes were made for the actor.

Standing firm on her demand, the English actor said she would only be a part of the 8 seasons old series's spin-off only if zips were invented and the leather costumes with laces were gotten rid off. While the young actor expressed her concern regarding the costume's comfort, other actors on the show cited other own reasons to become a part of the series. 

Jacob Anderson said that he would not be a part of the series if the authenticity of the location was compromised. He said if Grey Worm stays in Naath and the shooting takes place in Barbados then he shall not be a part of the spin-off. Whereas, for Liam Cunningham, it was a monetary issue whereby he asserted he would not sign up for anything until he sees the paycheque.
