Let check out this video Kit Harington | Romantic Proposal and Real Daily Life Moments to know more about his life

Kit Harington studied acting at the Central School of Speech and Drama at the University of London. Soon after graduating in 2008, he starred in the London production of War Horse. Harington had his first hit statewide with the debut of the popular fantasy series Game of Thrones in 2011. He played Jon Snow, a warrior and illegitimate son of Lord Eddard Stark, on the show for five seasons.

Born Christopher Catesby Harington on December 26, 1986, in London, the actor Kit Harington is best known for playing Jon Snow on the hit HBO series Game of Thrones. He grew up in London and then moved to Worcester around the age of 11. Around this time, Harington made an important discovery. He told CNN that he learned that his first name was only a nickname. “I went to school, you do these exams and I put down Kit Harington and the teacher said, ‘That’s not your name,’ and I said, ‘Yeah I think I’d know my own name!’ They were like, “No no your name is Christopher.” I was a bit pissed off with my mum.”

Harington first dreamed of taking up another career growing up. As he told Variety, “I always thought I would be a journalist, and never really saw acting as a career, only as a hobby.” He changed his tune when he was admitted to the Central School of Speech and Drama at the University of London. Harrington explained to Back Stage that “getting into the so-called top drama schools in London is very, very difficult.”

After graduating in 2008, Harington landed his first major role on the London stage. He played a young man who follows his beloved animal into combat in the drama War Horse. After War Horse, Harington soon auditioned for his most famous part to date. He looked a little rough around the edges when he first tried out for Jon Snow, the bastard son of Lord Eddard Stark, on Game of Thrones. Harington told the Daily Mail that “I had a black eye as I’d been in a scrap. But I think it might have helped. You know, ‘Who’s the kid with the black eye?'”Once he won the part, Harington asked to change his look after shooting the show’s pilot episode. The producers asked him to grow his hair and a beard and skip shampoo to make him “look a bit dirtier and grubbier and more visceral,” he told CNN
