Kit Harington Was 'Pissed' at This Moment From 'Game of Thrones' Final Season

Kit Harington is revealing what moment from the final season of Game of Thrones caused him to be “pissed off.”

It was when Arya (Maisie Williams) got to kill the Night King, and not his character, Jon Snow.

“I was a bit pissed off, only because I wanted to kill the Night King! I think I felt like everyone else did, in that it had been set up for a long time, and then I didn’t get to do it. But I was so happy for Maisie and Arya. I was secretly like, ‘I wanted to do that!’ Especially because I love fighting with Vlad, who also played the White Walker,” Kit told THR. “I fought at Hardhome. I’ve never seen a better swordsman. But it was a really great twist, and it tied up Maisie’s journey in a really beautiful way. Over the seasons, we’ve seen her build up these skills to become this hardened assassin, and she uses it all to kill our main antagonist.”

Kit also spoke about his reaction to the final season during the table read.

He said, “I hadn’t read the scripts for the final season until the table read. I wanted to hear them around the table, without having read anything first. I sat on a plane next to Emilia on the way to the read-through in Belfast, and she had read them already, and se was like, ‘Sh*t, Kit. You are in for some surprises.’ That piqued my interest. (Laughs.) I didn’t realize what was going to happen the whole way through until maybe half a page before Jon kills Dany. I remember my mouth dropping open and looking across Emilia at the table, who was slowly nodding as I went, ‘No, no, no!’ It was a ‘holy f*ck’ moment, pardon my language. Jaw dropping. I was completely surprised by it, even though you can kind of see the path through the season of how it was getting there — and even the previous couple of seasons before that, once you can look back. But it was still a big shock to me.”

Kit Harington hasn’t been seen since late June, when he was spotted after his rehab stay with his wife Rose Leslie.
