I did promise more Game Of Thrones stuff, especially after the general awesomeness of my interview with Kit Harington aka Jon Snow from the show. I was postponing Harington’s comments on Season 2 until after Comic Con in case there were any updates, but it doesn’t get much better than this. Anyway, here’s what he had to say on what GOT fans can expect come Season 2:
“The characters you invest and know will carry on, but they don’t get it much easier from here on. War’s coming, winter’s coming. You will invest in them just as much as you did in the first season, but it’s not going to be easy for you or them.”
I also asked him who he thought would win in a fight between Jon and Rob. His answer went something like this:
“Jon.”
MM: That was a pretty quick response, you sound very decided on that?
“They’re brothers, but Jon would definitely win.”
Interviewer: Will we see a love interest for Jon this season?
Kit:
Cheeky bastard xD
Old Kit Harington interview, from back in April. Most older fans have probably heard this one already, the one from Fearless Fred, but for newer fans who got into Game of Thrones recently you might enjoy it. Very weird listening to this after watching the show.
On watching GoT…
He has also watched Game of Thrones but reluctantly.
“My parents would not have let me get away without watching it,” he laughed. “I said I would watch each episode once and that was a strict rule I had with myself but, of course, then your best friend wants to watch it after you have finished watching it with your parents and you end up seeing each episode two or three times.
“I have enjoyed it in a kind of hiding-behind-the-sofa kind of way.”
Adorable human being is adorable :3
