I agree with Kit when he said that even though there was a bit of competition between Robb and Jon, Jon would have followed him to the ends of the earth. Because that's his character Loyal, Noble and someone who loves his family.
'..to act is an honor in itself' - his answer to the 'typecast' question. Sweet. Hope we don't lose this adorable lack of pretense to Fame. Good luck, Kit.
Good interview with one minor criticism. I wish she would stop interrupting him. There was one point in particular when he was trying to describe Jon's inner conflict and she broke in and took it in another direction. 😡
I know! I truly never liked Dany, especially in the books! She never listens or takes advice from her council and she used black magic to bring Drogo back because she was afraid if she died she would lose all power. She does all of this then complains about the results she gets. She won't believe anyone when they tell her about how evil her father was. Not to mention she randomly sleeps with her hand maiden and whoever she pleases, just because she's horny.
***** I thought he had said in the interview at the Oxford Union, that he read the all of the books in the series before they started filming. Book 5 came out around season 1, but that was over 4 years ago, he probably read it or heard the story arc for his character by then. Oh well, As you said he would have gotten the script fist.
Thank you so much for answering my question, Kit! You're amazing actor and smart & funny man. Amazing interview!! Thanks L.A Times and thanks to Mary McNamara (My name is Begoña, Bego, north of Spain name, hahaha, dear!) :)))
Hello Kit!!! My question is: defeated White Walkers and miracoulosly still alive, what would you rather happen to Jon? to ascend to the throne or to remain with the Night's Watch, or a third possibility? I love a lot "your" Jon and I like the fact that when you talk about your character we can see how much you like play the role of Jon Snow after all this time and how well you have him figured out. Thank you!
It makes me sad hearing him talk about being very excited to pick apart what D&D will do for his character as the show goes on... and seeing how much they let Jon and Kit down. I was very upset with how Jon was handled in seasons 7 and 8. I will never be okay with his "romance" with Dany, nor his sudden out of character stupidity. We know Jon was naive but he wasn't a dummy.
Hey Kit, in GRRM's original outline for the book series Jon Snow and Arya Stark fall in love, what are your thoughts on that? Do you think that could happen?
I don't think they will. When you read the books you could tell GRRMartin had that in mind. In their chapters, they only seem to think about each other and no one else in the stark clan (surprising, considering everything that happens) and they miss each other a lot so it crossed my mind that George decided just to leave those bits in for fun.
Do you think Jon believes Stannis is the rightful king? Could it influence his actions, considering the Night's Watch is not allowed to take sides? Does Jon still wish for somebody to avenge House Stark?
HP still seems like the most well-resolved bk series or show, a lesson on how it shud be done. It doesnt look that ASOIF can survive GoT ending and contradictions, terrible loss becoz those books are something
I am crushed that GOT killed Jon Snow. I loved to Stark family men and now they've killed all the adult men. The show is really going to be different for me now that he's gone. Ned was my favorite character in the first season and I didn't know they were going to chop off his head! (very upsetting) I haven't read the books because like Mary, I'm enjoying the show. I can't wait to see Brandon again. I'm sure he'll be my next favorite Stark young man.
Jenn Nunya Jon will not stay dead, he will be back more fiery then ever :) and Brandon wont be back next season 90% of it :D, he has no story-line , his just a freaking kid :D
That's good to know, obviously someone must come and save him. He looked pretty dead or at least almost dead to me.( Poor Jon) Anyway, thanks for the info... :o))
During the hiatus, you should read A Song of Ice and Fire. It gives you more depth than the show, and there is a BUNCH of characters they left out, or didn't give them much screen time, who are AWESOME! Plot twists were left out of the show that are in the books, so you can still be surprised. Post script Jon is not dead in my opinion, he is going to be a bad ass Rider. GoT < ASoIaF
Thanks Amiee, now that the show is going into season 6, I probably will read the book. Like my other favorite show, I like the actors playing the characters and I like not knowing what is going to happen. Well, at least most of the time. I know a few people who've read the book and they absolutely love it. :O)

He's smart. Almost too serious. It's nice to see an actor who isn't a people pleaser.
Most aren't.. especially after a few years of doing interviews
One of the better interviews, I think. I love Kit's dry sense of humour.
what sense of humor?
I agree with Kit when he said that even though there was a bit of competition between Robb and Jon, Jon would have followed him to the ends of the earth. Because that's his character Loyal, Noble and someone who loves his family.
"Well, i think that's all the time we have."
Kit: "Nice"
hahaha, i love him :) He's so smart and handsome :)
He's such a smart, and talented actor I wonder why he hasn't been nominated for any awards.
ExcelnAccess for some reason people don’t think he’s that good an actor.
'..to act is an honor in itself' - his answer to the 'typecast' question. Sweet. Hope we don't lose this adorable lack of pretense to Fame. Good luck, Kit.
"No, not the nose darling." I love this interview.
whats the time stamp on that?
One of the best interviews with Kit out there.
Btw. it''s fun to re-watch after having seen both season 5 and 6 :)
Love Game Of Thrones :) Kit Harington is a great actor x
Great interview. I enjoyed all the questions.. questions I would ask him myself!
Good interview with one minor criticism. I wish she would stop interrupting him. There was one point in particular when he was trying to describe Jon's inner conflict and she broke in and took it in another direction. 😡
Adoro a este hombre ademas de ser extremadamente apuesto, es inteligente, simpático y todo un caballero al hablar,, así o mas perfecto ,,,, LO AMO
Great interview. Interesting when he said anybody who is seeking the iron throne shouldnt get it.
Looking at you Dany
I know! I truly never liked Dany, especially in the books! She never listens or takes advice from her council and she used black magic to bring Drogo back because she was afraid if she died she would lose all power. She does all of this then complains about the results she gets. She won't believe anyone when they tell her about how evil her father was. Not to mention she randomly sleeps with her hand maiden and whoever she pleases, just because she's horny.
All I am thinking about through this whole interview is that he knew that his character died this season
Shall*I*be*her Well maybe because he Filmed it a couple of months ago?! lol
Well he said he read the books so he probably knew it was coming soon anyway.
+Aimee Ann he didn't read book 5, but he'd have gotten a call before he got the script.
***** I thought he had said in the interview at the Oxford Union, that he read the all of the books in the series before they started filming. Book 5 came out around season 1, but that was over 4 years ago, he probably read it or heard the story arc for his character by then.

Really Sean Bean was surprised his character died? He dies in almost everything he's in, surely he wasn't that shocked
Lol! So true! 😆

Great interview, loved this one! 😊💯 His theories were correct kinda that’s why I loved season 8 unlike most.
"jon is cold and wet" "He's getting harder"
I have a really nasty mind, am I the only one who thought that moment was just awkward?
Yes?
Okay.
😂😂😂😂
7 Days in Hell was funny!! He should do another comedy. And with the late night TV stuff, he'd be great.
Hey Kit, have you read GRRM's original outline for the book series and if so what are your thoughts on it.
Hello Kit!!! Can you explain us what kind of relationship will Jon have with the "new" characters (Stannis, Davos, Melisandre and Selyse)? Thank you
Yo Kit, what could you possibly tell us about White Walkers in Hardhome this season ? ps : love your acting
What about the Valyrian rubber sword, Kit? (Great GIF, if you haven't seen it already.)
If Jon had a dragon, he would name it Rhaegal.
+Anastacia Vojtikova Did you get the joke?
yeah, his aunt might give it to him at least for a few rides.
dorothy Nunez his aunt might ride him for a few rides
His look after she asks the question at 9:59: "Do I tell her about that one upcoming scene..."
About what novel is he talking at the end and is someone can help me please with the name of the author. Thanks anyway.
Petruta M. Tatulescu A Wizard of Earthsea by Ursula K. Le Guin.
Thank you so much :)
What book did he say in 30:00?
Wizard of earthsea

What he said about Jon's mother...Maye she turns up this season..What if she already turned up?! I now kinda think it's Melisandre?!
She interrupts him constantly Jesus
I honestly do not understand how can one review an adaptation of a book series for TV without reading the novels.
Laura Palmer because the TV show is, and always will be, a standalone piece.
I am crushed that GOT killed Jon Snow. I loved to Stark family men and now they've killed all the adult men. The show is really going to be different for me now that he's gone. Ned was my favorite character in the first season and I didn't know they were going to chop off his head! (very upsetting) I haven't read the books because like Mary, I'm enjoying the show. I can't wait to see Brandon again. I'm sure he'll be my next favorite Stark young man.

Post script
Jon is not dead in my opinion, he is going to be a bad ass Rider.

LJenn Nunya You should be warned though, some people find the series slow at first. There is a lot of character development in the first half on aGoT.
"Can we get a blonde around here...?" and I was "gagging to get my ass on TV"...... check and check!!!
Jon tyrion and Dany are all outcast...
The skin 🔥
Can I marry you? And who is your dream actor/actress you'd like to costar wuth? 💋💋👅
