Kit Harington thinks HBO's Harry Potter series is "the best idea"
The actor recently replaced Nicholas Hoult to play Professor Gilderoy Lockhart in the upcoming series.
Kit Harington, the actor known for his role as Robin Arryn in Game of Thrones, expressed his enthusiasm for HBO's Harry Potter series. Although he had previously worked on an audiobook version of the Harry Potter property, as well as had a co-star in the series, Keira Knightley, face backlash for her participation, Harington remains resolute in his decision to take on the role.
During an appearance on NBC's Today show, he stated that he has always been a fan of the Harry Potter series, both as a child and an adult, even listening to the books every night to help him fall asleep. Harington believes that the series has the potential to delve deeply into the books, which he thinks is a fantastic opportunity for book lovers like himself.
