Kit Harington compares Industry’s Henry to Jon Snow
Kit Harington’s career has flourished and diversified ever since his Game of Thrones days. His role as Jon Snow prepared him for future big shows, like Industry. In a recent interview with GQ, Harington, talking about a scene in the second episode of the third season, said,
“I read that scene and it made me think, I’ve got to do this, and it was great, because I instantly clicked with Harry. We had a kind of – I hate the word – bromance. I said to him, [Robert] is the closest this thing has to a hero, to a good soul, a bit like Jon Snow. It was fun playing the tormentor.”
