Is he dead, or is he alive? That is the ultimate question concerning Jon Snow. In both the books and the show, his fate is left hanging, and fans are getting impatient to find out. Now, it seems, their wait is finally over. Or is it?
Kit Harington was interviewed by the Belgian magazine Humo recently, while he was promoting his film "Testament of Youth." Naturally, he was asked about his character on "Game of Thrones." Although the magazine is in Dutch, a Reddit user translated a part of his interview.
When the interviewer asked how much longer will he still be in the show, the actor gave a vague answer, but one that could be interpreted as a major slip-up!
"I can't talk about that," he reportedly said. "Let's just say that 'Game of Thrones' will remain a part of my life for a while, I'll probably be in my thirties when it's over. One thing's for sure: the day I'm no longer on 'Thrones' is the day I'll bury myself in movie projects."
The biggest clue he gave was part about his age, and fans were quick to compute. Harington is turning 29 this year, so could that mean he just revealed that Jon Snow is in fact alive and will appear on the show for at least two more years?
There has been no official comment from both the actor and HBO's camps.
Meanwhile, Emilia Clarke, the British actress portraying Daenerys Targaryen, recently talked to Daily Mail UK and revealed that she doesn't exactly enjoy showing too much skin in front of the screen. While we've seen her disrobing quite a number of times for "Game of Thrones," the actress called this cringe-worthy.
"I can't stand it," she told Daily Mail. "Most sex scenes you see in films or on TV are gratuitous and they're usually just to attract an audience. On screen, the subtler the better."
Nudity or not, the show's followers remain loyal to the franchise. Seven more months before "Game of Thrones" returns to the small screen, in April 2016.
