Kit Harington, known for his role as Jon Snow in the popular HBO series 'Game of Thrones,' recently found himself in an amusingly awkward situation during a fan encounter in London. While out with friends, Harington was approached by what he thought was an enthusiastic fan requesting a photo. However, the fan actually wanted a picture with a London landmark, leading to a humorous misunderstanding that left Harington feeling embarrassed.
Despite this comical incident, Harington emphasized that interactions with 'Game of Thrones' fans are typically positive and enjoyable. The actor expressed gratitude for the continued support from fans even after the show concluded in 2019.
Recently, Harington partnered with Zynga for the new video game 'Game of Thrones: Legends,' marking his return to the franchise since the series ended. He expressed enthusiasm for the evolving 'Thrones' universe, including the upcoming spinoff 'House of The Dragon' and interactive games like 'Legends.'
Following the conclusion of 'Game of Thrones,' Harington took a break from acting to focus on his mental well-being. This decision allowed him to prioritize self-care and spend quality time with his wife, Rose Leslie, also a former 'Game of Thrones' cast member. The couple welcomed their first child in 2021 and a second child in 2023.
In a recent announcement, Harington revealed his upcoming role in the play 'Slave Play' by Jeremy O. Harris, scheduled to run in London's West End from June to September. This return to the stage signifies Harington's continued passion for acting and his commitment to exploring diverse roles beyond his iconic character in 'Game of Thrones.'
