Game of Thrones star Kit Harington joined Access Hollywood for an exclusive interview, and discussed fatherhood, his role in Amazon's rom-com anthology series Modern Love and his random cameo in Friends: The Reunion!
Kit Harington On His Friends: The Reunion Cameo
The acclaimed actor guest-starred on the anticipated reunion episode of Friends, where he discussed his favorite scene from the series among other things. Harington's fans didn't even know the actor was such a massive fan!
When Kit Harington was asked what the Friends cast thought of his cameo, the actor replied: "I have no idea."
"I haven't met any of them...I think I met Jennifer Aniston in passing at an awards ceremony once and that's as close as I've come..." said the actor, adding, "I was a huge fan of that show, and talking of comedy I mean...they were some of the best comic actors."
Wonder why the Friends: The Reunion team couldn't arrange a photo-op (or a video chat) for Kit Harington like they did for Justin and Hailey Bieber!
The Emmy-nominated actor further shared that he learned about "timing and performance and bravery in comedy" from watching the series.
On Fatherhood
In 2018, Harington married his Game of Thrones co-star Rose Leslie and in 2021, the pair welcomed a baby boy into their lives. The actor spilled on what it was like to be a new dad, and now the family was "part of a unit together".
The actor revealed that what surprised him most about Fatherhood, was that it went on forever.
"What surprises you is you go, 'Oh, this goes on forever!' You don't get a break from it. You're just like ... every day I wake up and look after this little human and now we're part of a unit together," he gushed in the interview.
Harington said that his family was "now a unit," and it was "a whole new dynamic" they needed to find as their son grows and changes each day. "It's a beautiful thing, it really is," he said.
After having portrayed Jon Snow on the hit-HBO series for eight years, the actor is diving deep into his career as an actor by starring in films and anthologies that show off his versatility, and for the same reasons, Harington is thrilled about his role in Modern Love.
