Kit Harington: Jon Snow

Kit Harington has suggested that his 'Game Of Thrones' character Jon Snow is "not okay" following the show's finale.

“So I think where we leave him at the end of the show, there’s always this feeling of like… HBO Max is not currently available in the UK. “I think that was quite a significant condition of [Jon] living, was like, ‘I don’t ever want to see your face again. The fact he goes to the Wall is the greatest gift and also the greatest curse. “At the end of the show when we find him in that cell, he’s preparing to be beheaded and he wants to be. While Harington didn’t touch upon the planned show during an appearance at the Game Of Thrones Convention yesterday (December 11), he did hint at where the character is psychologically.

Jon Snow may have survived the Game Of Thrones finale, but that doesn't mean he's super happy about it.

The way Harington sees it, it’s good that Jon Snow got to live, but it’s also bad that he has to live forever in the place where he experienced most of the bad stuff that happened to him over the course of the series—Harington specifically mentions the death of Ygritte and when he had to hang Olly for betraying him, but let’s not forget that The Wall is also where he met Westeros’ best best friend, Samwell Tarly, so it wasn’t all bad. “I think if you asked him, he would’ve felt he got off lightly,” Harington said, referring to Jon being exiled back to The Wall as punishment for killing Daenerys after she went on that dragon rampage, with him adding, “At the end of the show when we find him in that cell, he’s preparing to be beheaded and he wants to be.

"I went through, kind of, some mental health difficulties after Thrones and during the end of Thrones, to be honest," he explained. I think I'm really happy I did that," Harington added. The fact he goes to the Wall is the greatest gift and also the greatest curse. I think we wanted some kind of little smile that things are okay.
