when I was 12 I saw him in war horse on a school trip and I remember thinking he was really good but I had no idea just how successful his career would be and that he would playing one of my all time favourite fictional characters

[@Juu_de]

+yasmin mc He was in warhorse? Wow, I didn't realize that :o also not that he played in silent hill, while I watched both xD

[@lytruc48]

Those eyes.... It killing me !!!! 😭😭😭😭😭

[@jennychang3696]

love his natural frown and accent. Just like seeing an innocent boy when looking in his eyes.

[@kymbatism]

OMG!! Those eyes and that hair are killing me!!

[@girlwholoves1]

Can't stop staring at his mouth... He has perfect lips

[@kristelarevizhde4410]

🤤🤤😣😣😣😣

[@stardust8731]

'..looks upset enough to play Jon Snow" ha ha..Kit, you are precious! I wish all those born-to-criticize people would see how unpretentious this young actor is.

[@KpopComplex]

the guy in the back at 1:01 is me

[@levinsonsteven]

Kpop Complex hahahahahahhahahahahahaha 🤣

[@bobabubbletea7141]

SAAAAAÀAME!!!!

[@RoSoliTaire]

Kit's face looks always confuse all the time. Still cute tho.

[@THBbon]

+Roltaire Solis so true!

[@ArkanoCanal]

+Roltaire Solis Its because He Does'n Know nothing HAHAHA

[@nathaliexlr8]

They must've been thinking "This guy looks the 'know nothing' part. This one's the one" when they cast him hahaha

[@jennym2826]

Hi Kit! Sending lots of love from New England. Thank you for being the very BEST Jon Snow that could anyone could ever have dreamed of! ❤

[@kaysalady]

He left out one question. How does it feel to be the sexiest man alive?

[@Sharon_Cort]

***** He actually hates it if people tell him that/ask him that ;)

[@AshesAether]

He dislikes it very much. Lol. He says he would rather be well known for his acting, not his beauty.

[@kaysalady]

It appears that I've truly offended you. That was certainly not my intent. I do apologize and hope you'll both forgive me. It's not in my nature to be distasteful.

[@sansastark1497]

He's not that big of a deal

[@Upper_echelon_exotics]

Well if it makes him feel any better. (Not that he will read this) I didn't really think he was that cute until I watched interviews and stuff. It's mostly his personality that I like.

[@bajszilvia]

yall i need this whole interview

[@indeeyy]

Arguth Reinark I don't think you need this petition. Jon Snow is also killed off in the books so the show creators are going that way as well. I'm pretty sure he'll come back.

[@cris-mo1yx]

Long live the king in the north

[@shwetalaxman2518]

he's so damn attractive!!!

[@bluegalant]

He has beautiful skin.

[@LythranaNirinath]

With those close-ups at some point you stop listening to what they are saying and the only thing you do is just staring at THOSE lips!!!!!

[@MJBABYPHAT]

lol I thought it was only me. And Staring at his gorgeous eyes as well

[@kymbatism]

+MJBABYPHAT , OMG!! I do both of what you said!!

[@Rosannasfriend]

I don't even notice his lips most times... I love his eyes and his aura. His heir, his voice....

[@deni_htx_peru]

Lythrana Nirinath Omg i thought i was the only one! lol 🙈

[@2HRTS1LOVE]

One interview with the producers, Kit, and the guy who plays Sam, instead of "Blue Steel" (from the Ben Stiller male model movie), they called Kit's famous Jon Snow face "Brood Steel", lol, and of course made him do it on the spot. That cracked me up, I can hear the director in Iceland as they zoom in for a close up..."Action! Ok, Kit, hold on, we're tightening the shot, get ready, annnddd...BROOD STEEL!!!" He gets paid to pout, but he looks so PRETTY while he's at it!

[@cris-mo1yx]

with those pretty lips of his he could pout all the day long and no one would complain lol

[@nathaliexlr8]

He named every one of my favourites.

[@tanuskabanerjee1412]

How he said AriA, sAnsA 😂 that was adorable

[@INREDNINGSV]

[@jh-vs4vx]

[@generalgrievous9112]

My old trombone teacher used to work with kit Harrington and apparently helped him learn his lines for his game of thrones audition I'm not sure how true this is but it's what I was told

[@teresajose2280]

That’s cool.

[@wserthmar8908]

Yeah, cool

[@OceanbornAngel]

I'm hoping that Ghost is the key to Jon Snow surviving next season, maybe have Jon Snow be able to Warg through Ghost like Bran can do with Summer.

[@joshalipio6259]

The King in the North! :D

[@calicojack5623]

I'm probably gay now idk, not really too upset

[@TheJenne1111]

the dude in the back looks like he was about to pick his nose in the back at the end

[@mariia099]

I had a dream that I married Jon ~ LMFAO best dream ever

[@peterq2838]

It could indeed

[@vissiv8614]

1:55

[@danielasilva441]

[@JustSomeCanadianGuy]

I wanna know who it was that got the whole cast to sign their script. :)

[@fayeharrod5685]

when he said aria lmao

[@SlowToadTV]

+gniltitbus I'm guessing he ment the missprounonciation. Its pronounced Ar-ya. Not Ari-a

[@fayeharrod5685]

+gniltitbus he said it weird like there wasn't an r in aria

[@Medusawithglasses]

[@YoungJusticeLuv]

quit interrupting Kit, yeesh.

[@dianawildzone613]

[@joedell5941]

long live the king of the north, lord commander of the nights watch, beater of bastards and knower of nothing!!!!

[@4hm4d94]

You know nothin Jon snow 😭😭

[@ajsuflena156]

why do all fantasy films and series use british accents

[@inniehyun3554]

ajsuflena because at the time that game Of thrones is set in there was no America

[@guestuser1671]

Imagine a movie that's about a fantasy "England" in semi-medieval times but the actors sound like rappers from New York.

[@Edith-qz3on]

Why are you scratching your head? 🤣

[@alispikes6010]

I had no idea his eyes were actually almost green irl

[@lucasboden]

He looks like 12 yr old with facial hair.

[@CF-qm1gp]

You know nothing Jon Snow.
