Kit Harington 'guarantees' his children will never watch Game of Thrones, despite Jon Snow's legacy

The North recalls Jon Snow's greatness, but Kit Harington doubts his children will ever fully appreciate it.

The former Game of Thrones star shared that he doesn’t expect his 3-year-old son and 1-year-old daughter with wife Rose Leslie to become enthusiastic about the HBO show.

“I don't think they'll wanna watch Game of Thrones,” Kit exclusively told E! News at the Aug. 6 premiere of his new show Industry. “I absolutely guarantee you they'll probably never wanna see that show.”

Even when asked about the possibility of his children witnessing the real-life romance between him and Rose—who married in 2018 after meeting on the show's set—the Industry actor remained skeptical.

“I think they'll be deeply uncomfortable,” Kit explained. “I don't think they're gonna wanna watch anything I'm in. I really don't. I think it's gonna be one of those sadnesses that I'll be like, ‘Hey, look at this thing I was in 20 years ago.’ And they'll be like, ‘Dad no.’” 

But that lack of appreciation won’t dampen the 37-year-old’s love for the series.

“I mean, it's incredible to me and really heartwarming that that whole franchise is continuing,” he said. “I just think it's brilliant. I think long may it continue.”

As for what’s next for Kit? The actor, who is on the heels of doing an ad for the Game of Thrones: Legends video game, just wants to keep doing what he loves.

“All I know right now is I'm doing a play and I love theatre and want to continue doing that,” he said. “As long as I get to do a bit of filming and a bit of theatre, to me, it doesn't matter what it is.”
