'I'm More Comfortable With That Character Again': Jon Snow Actor Kit Harington Now Says 'There's a World in Which Something Could Work' With His Scrapped Game of Thrones Spinoff
Game of Thrones star Kit Harington has seemingly softened his stance on HBO's now-scrapped Jon Snow spinoff, after previously saying he wouldn't "go anywhere near" the character again.
Kit Harington, the actor who portrayed Jon Snow in the popular series Game of Thrones, has expressed a shift in his opinion regarding the scrapped Jon Snow spinoff. During an interview on the Happy, Sad, Confused podcast, Harington revealed that he now sees a possibility for the character to return in a different form. Initially, Harington was adamant about not returning to the role of Jon Snow, stating that if they couldn't find the right direction for the story, it would be better to not create it.
However, after several years away from the character, he feels more at ease with his decision and believes there might be a scenario where the concept could work. Harington explained that during the development of the spinoff, which was supposed to follow Jon Snow's return to the Northern wilderness, he had even advocated for his character's demise.
HBO and George R.R. Martin were also in agreement on this matter. Nonetheless, after experiencing other projects and gaining some perspective, Harington now feels more at peace with the character and its surroundings.
