Kit Harington described shooting intimate scenes with Sophie Turner in their new horror movie ‘weird’ in light of their history of working on Game of Thrones together.Harington, 39, and Turner, 30, grew up together while filming the hit HBO series that ran from 2011 to 2019.Turner, who starred as Sansa Stark, was just 14 years old when filming began. Meanwhile, Jon Snow actor Harington was around the age of 24.Their characters (for most of Game of Thrones) were led to believe that they were siblings until that bombshell in season six that revealed that they were actually first cousins instead.Whether they were cousins or siblings in GOT, undeniably, shifting to play lovers in their new movie The Dreadful was a strange transition for both Harington and Turner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Directed by Natasha Kermani, the film follows a woman living in isolation in 15th-century England whose life is turned upside down when a figure from her past suddenly returns.Discussing the matter with fellow GOT alum Peter Dinklage for Variety’s Actors on Actors series, Harington said: “It was weird. She sent me the script and I said, ‘Sophie, there\u2019s a lot of us getting it on’.”She hadn\u2019t seen that. She just said, ‘Yeah, Kit would be good for this part’.”He went on to point out that he has known Turner ‘since she was a child’ and sees her as a ‘younger sister’.”It was gross, but it was fine,” Harington further described the intimate scenes filmed with her in The Dreadful, which hit theaters in February.Turner herself has echoed similar sentiments and said that it was ‘vile’.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
