Watch Game Of Thrones Unaired Pilot' title='Watch Game Of Thrones Unaired Pilot' />Im not always going to play swords and horses Kit Harington on life after Game Of Thrones Culture. Kit Harington is reminiscing about his drama school days. You think you know the world, and youre so overly serious about what youre doing, and how important it is, sitting on the steps, with coffee and a script, in blackHe smiles, but his arms are folded defensively across his chest, and he occasionally brings a hand up to play with his moustache. Hes wearing take me seriously wire framed specs and is dressed entirely in black. He looks down and has a moment of recognition, as if hes just walked into a trap. I am actually completely in black. Winter Is Coming is the first episode of the HBO medieval fantasy television series Game of Thrones. It was written by the show creators David Benioff and D. B. And Im talking about important things, he smiles. I havent changed at all, have IHe might not think so, but at 3. Harington is living a very different life from the one he led at 1. Shortly after leaving drama school, he signed up to shoot the pilot for a promising new television fantasy series, Game Of Thrones, playing a moody young northerner called Jon Snow. It was his first screen role. We didnt know if it was going to go, and we didnt know if it was going to be any good, he explains. But it was HBO, and it was American TV, so it felt like a huge deal. Game of Thrones first incarnation wasnt promising, however, and the pilot turned out to be a dud. They made a lot of mistakes. It didnt look right, didnt feel right, had nothing different about it. In it, the nascent Jon Snow was wearing a wig, was clean shaven and made use of the baby face Harington hides under his beard. He claims that hardly anyone has seen that pilot, not even him, but that the shows creators, DB Weiss and David Benioff, have a copy they use to keep him in line. They say, if I ever piss them off too much, theyll release it on You. Tube. Every now and then, they send me a screengrab, just as a threat. Weiss and Benioff went back to the drawing board. Harington, then 2. The whole show became dirtier, grittier and more grown up. By the end of the first season, millions of viewers who might have balked at the idea of swordfights and spells suddenly found that, when sex and violence were added to the mix, they could get behind a fantasy series, after all. As Game Of Thrones grew into the behemoth it is today, Snow was manoeuvred into the very heart of the story. Harington is now about to go to work on the shows eighth and final season. How is Snow going to feel when he finds out that the woman hes in love with, Daenerys Targaryen, is also his auntI really hope that he just nods slowly and goes, Damned right, he says, doing a mock leer. Something really horribly inappropriate, and you find out Jons had a really sick mind the whole time. Thats the way Id love to play it. Ill try it for one take, anyway. He is close to Emilia Clarke, who plays Daenerys, though owing to the series vast geography, the two did not film together until season seven. But we were very good friends by the time we got to the sex scene, Harington laughs and squirms. Which is really weird. Usually, youd turn up and youd know the actor, but youre not best mates. The main thing was trying not to laugh. It was like, OK, if we laugh, well never get this scene done, so weve got to do minimal takes, then we can crack up about it afterwards. It feels like being Bieber or something. For reasons both personal and professional, Harington thinks the show is ending at the perfect time. Hes one of the few cast members whos made it this far, though he did have to negotiate a gruesome death and resurrection to get here. I wouldnt have wanted to go on for another year, but if it had finished last year, it wouldnt have felt long enough. Maybe the most special year was the first. We werent being recognised in the street, we didnt know what we were doing, we were having a great time. Thronesmania is, he acknowledges, bizarre and weird. Like, being in Spain and there being a crowd of 5. It feels like being Bieber or something. When Snow became the brooding heart throb of the Thrones world, Harington became a kind of boyband pin up, too.

Jon Snow himself Kit Harington has shed some light on what exactly went wrong with Game of Thrones unaired pilot. I dont know. Do I Im glad Ive experienced it, but thats what I mean about it being eight years, then its done. You couldnt go on for much longer. Its a bit incessant. Fame of that kind makes him moody, he explains. Hes sceptical of all it brings, though he was thrilled he got to take his brother to the Italian Grand Prix recently. When he says the word celebrity, he makes air quotes. It makes me snappy and it makes me uncomfortable, and I turn into a grumpy person. Its unfair on his friends, he says, who bear the brunt of it, but the main problem is selfies or, as he puts it, the photo thing. Now, hell set himself days where he wont take pictures with people. He performs his rejection spiel, which is polite and apologetic, but can piss people off. But you just have to, otherwise you start feeling like a mannequin.

The pair fell for each other in real life in the freezing Icelandic countryside, but were reluctant even to acknowledge that they were together for a long time. Recently, theyve edged out on to the red carpet, holding hands. Were living together and were very much a couple, he says, reading from the script. Hes nice enough to stumble over why he doesnt want to talk about her, though hes clearly smitten. I just dont and I wont say much about it now but I dont believe in talking about ones relationship in the press because its I strongly believe its her relationship and mine, and anything I say here, she may not want me to say. So I just dont say it. I genuinely think its our private life. Yet there are Buzzfeed lists dedicated to how cute their relationship is, whole You.
