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

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.

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

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

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

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.

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.

This just means they haven’t offered him enough yet

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

NEVER SAY NEVER AGAIN.

[–] bklyn@piefed.social 5 points 4 months ago

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

[–] eestileib@lemmy.blahaj.zone 13 points 4 months ago (1 children)

He's super keen to be in Harry Potter tho

"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 4 months ago

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

[–] kinkles@sh.itjust.works 13 points 4 months ago

and by it i mean my peanits

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 11 points 4 months ago

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

[–] Prove_your_argument@piefed.social 5 points 4 months 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 4 months ago (2 children)

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

[–] Prove_your_argument@piefed.social 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

4m net worth?

At one point I did the math and dividends from 4k in dividend stocks gets you like 100k/year. Hardly “super rich” when houses and condos are practically a million bucks in HCOL

Make way for the TRUE KING OF THE NORTH!

“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.”

[–] SlartyBartFast@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 months ago

Wow, was it really ten years?

[–] dan69@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

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