“They cancelled the spin-off I said I was super into doing, so now I’m going to pretend I never wanted to do it. As soon as they offer me enough money, or just offer me another spinoff…enough time will suddenly have passed and I’ll be super excited to do it again.”

Make way for the TRUE KING OF THE NORTH!

I mean, the story is over. It's not like there's anything else for him to go back to, is there?

[–] scytale@piefed.zip 43 points 2 days ago (1 children)

If studios can milk even dead characters, how much more for characters that ended up surviving at the end. If there's no story, I'm sure they'll be happy to make one.

He’s been dead before

[–] boonhet@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Did he die again in the end? I honestly have a memory hole in season 8 and much of season 7, despite having watched the entire show twice (the earlier seasons multiple times before that, but I only did a single rewatch after the whole thing was over)

[–] uncouple9831@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

His character in the last season made me want to die. Does that count?

[–] bonenode@piefed.social 24 points 2 days ago (2 children)

But who's got a better story than Jon Snow? Ah right, Bran did.

[–] pachrist@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

I feel like I remember seeing a graphic about Ned Stark having more screen time than Bran, despite dying in season 1.

think it was a joke about what they said in the show in the kings moot or whatever before declaring him king

[–] krooklochurm@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 days ago

It clearly was

[–] asteriskeverything@lemmy.world 14 points 2 days ago

This was his response to him coming back to the role for the audiobook. He just did Lockheart in new Harry Potter books so it was a natural question.

[–] normalexit@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

They could say the last season wasn't canon and try again, otherwise totally agree.

I feel bad for a few of the actors who aren't in eternal denial about the show being a imploded cultural black hole.

[–] ngdev@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 days ago
[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 11 points 2 days ago

probably doesnt want to be typecasted, alot of actors are unfortunately typecasted.

[–] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 26 points 2 days ago
[–] starik@lemmy.zip 22 points 2 days ago

This just means they haven’t offered him enough yet

Wow, was it really ten years?

[–] IWW4@lemmy.zip 15 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Kit.. Didn’t Connery ever teach you anything.

NEVER SAY NEVER AGAIN.

[–] bklyn@piefed.social 5 points 2 days ago

A film that Connery should definitely have said Dr. No to

[–] dan69@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Just like how I can’t imagine how and why Jon Ham in a comedy movie..

[–] eestileib@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 2 days ago (1 children)

He's super keen to be in Harry Potter tho

[–] njm1314@lemmy.world 20 points 2 days ago (1 children)

"I can accept being a transphobe but I draw the line at bad writing and plot structure."

Kit Harington probably.

[–] Dionysus@leminal.space 13 points 2 days ago

Having watched the last season, you have got to at least understand his point.

[–] kinkles@sh.itjust.works 12 points 2 days ago

and by it i mean my peanits

[–] Prove_your_argument@piefed.social 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I'd bet a substantial amount of money that eventually he will play the part for another pile of money. Probably not for a few years though unless other work dries up. It's not like he was making Friends level money or would ever make anything like those actors make even today in residuals.

Just takes a story set in the future after the events of GoT and a desire for more spending money. Articles mention his net worth being around 10-15m, which is enough to never work if you're content living a upper middle class life... but not enough to really live anything remotely extravagantly.

[–] Yeller_king@reddthat.com 2 points 2 days ago (7 children)

Isn't his wife (also from GoT) super rich?

She’s no richer than Kit Harrington.

If you’re referring to the fact that her family owns a castle…that’s not worth too much, weighed with her acting bucks.
