In a twist fit for Westeros, Game of Thrones actress Sophie Turner is collaborating with Colossal Biosciences to support the real-life return of the dire wolf. As reported by The Blast, Turner has joined the company’s Cultural Advisory Board to help bridge the gap between science and the public, using her platform to highlight Colossal’s pioneering de-extinction efforts. The dire wolf, famously associated with House Stark, is one of several extinct species Colossal aims to bring back using advanced genetic engineering and CRISPR technology. Turner’s involvement brings visibility to the broader implications of the work — including ecological restoration, climate resilience, and scientific ethics — while underscoring how pop culture can help fuel curiosity and support for cutting-edge research.
