As the countdown to the "Game of Thrones" season 5 continues, one series insider has dropped a major teaser that have got fan excited.
In a report by Entertainment Weekly, Kit Harington teased a new love affair for Jon Snow.
The actor shared that he has got a lot happening in the upcoming season and as usual he's got some tough locations.
"I think this is the first season I've topped Peter [Dinklage] in having the most shoot dates on the calendar. There's a lot of Jon in there. I'm really proud of this season. I think across the board it's going to be very, very strong. I watched The Sopranos, and season 5 was the favorite, and we were modeled after The Sopranos-so hopefully it will be a good one."
He spoke a bit about last season's loss of Ygritte and says, "He's got bigger things at hand. If he's missing her, it's internal. He's hardened, in some ways, this season. He's also got to play more politics this season, which he's not good at."
Harington also spoke about Melisandre coming on to his character and what he thinks about the new woman.
"He's incredibly intrigued by her. I find it endlessly funny that he really fancies redheads. One dies, and another comes along, and he's all, 'Hello!' There's mutual interest between them that we see right from the get-go. There's definitely a future there this season, with him and her. Who knows what Melisandre sees in people, but she's obviously obsessed with bastards and noble blood. There's obviously something a bit special about him in this story, and she locks in on that. So this season she tries to seduce him. That's her power play. It's going to be an interesting battle!"
Kit Harington's Hunky Reputation
While Harington is grateful about all the success he's gained on the show, the 28-year-old actor recently spoke to Page Six about the reputation he's gained since joining the hit HBO show.
"To always be put on a pedestal as a hunk is slightly demeaning," admitted the star. "It really is and it's in the same way as it is for women. When an actor is seen only for her physical beauty, it can be quite offensive."
He continued, "Well, it's not just men that can be inappropriate sexually; women can be as well. I'm in a successful TV show in a kind of leading man way and it can sometimes feel like your art is being put to one side for your sex appeal. And I don't like that."
"Game of Thrones" Season 5 returns to HBO on April 12. See the second trailer for the upcoming season:
