The colour of this summer time has undeniably been pink in terms of popular culture, due to the phenomenon of the Barbie film. Celebrities starting from Khlóe and Kim Kardashian to some 90 Day Fiancé acquainted faces have rocked Barbiecore, and now none apart from George R.R. Martin has embraced the pattern. Sure, the person behind Recreation of Thrones‘ grotesque Purple Marriage ceremony and Ramsay Bolton rocked pink when heading to the theater to see Margot Robbie’s new film, and Jon Snow would by no means.
George R.R. Martin is in fact the creator of the A Tune of Ice and Hearth novel saga that created Recreation of Thrones‘ characters and tales, which have expanded into Home of the Dragon. Whereas he is an knowledgeable at crafting grim, grotesque, and traumatic plot twists, you would not understand it to take a look at his Barbie viewing outfit! Have a look:

As anyone who will at all times and ceaselessly affiliate George R.R. Martin with characters like Jon Snow and has been ready on The Winds of Winter to proceed Jon’s story, I could not assist however consider that character after I first noticed the creator rocking each a vivid pink bow and boa. I can think about Equipment Harington carrying pink for some Barbie enjoyable, however Jon Snow? That character is iconic within the black of the Night time’s Watch, regardless of how the TV present ended his story. And I am unable to disagree with George R.R. Martin’s spouse – pink might actually be his coloration!
Whereas loads of folks within the Twitter feedback had enjoyable responses to Martin going all-in on Barbiecore and dubbing himself “kenough,” others took the chance to query Martin concerning the long-awaited Winds of Winter. That is the norm for Martin at any time when he posts something unrelated to the sixth e-book of A Tune of Ice and Hearth, and at the same time as a reader who would like to get my fingers on that novel, I am completely comfortable specializing in the feather boa and bow. How can I take into consideration the gloom and doom of Westeros when I’ve Barbie on the mind?!
Martin did not too long ago present an replace on the standing of The Winds of Winter whereas additionally explaining the place Home of the Dragon Season 2 is with filming, saying that he is been engaged on the e-book “nearly each day,” which includes “writing, rewriting, enhancing, writing some extra” and “making regular progress.” I definitely cannot fault him for taking a break to observe Barbie, and I really feel fairly assured that TWoW is not going to out of the blue have a really pink subplot after he bought to see Barbie and Ken in live-action on the massive display.
If something, I would not fault anyone for seeing Barbie a second time to catch some chic particulars they could have missed the primary time round. The film would have been very totally different if Mattel Movies had produced any of the sooner pitches, and the field workplace would not lie about how a lot of a success it’s. Good for George R.R. Martin for becoming a member of the plenty to decorate up in Barbiecore and take a look at the movie, as a result of it has been a vivid pink spotlight of the summer time for loads of folks!
Sadly, the wait remains to be on for The Winds of Winter and Home of the Dragon Season 2, however you’ll be able to at all times revisit Martin’s world of Westeros streaming with all eight seasons of Recreation of Thrones and the primary season of HOTD with a Max subscription now.
