'Game of Thrones' Star Kit Harington on Major Jon Snow Theory: 'I Don't Really Care About It'
Jon Snow may have been declared King in the North on "Game of Thrones," but he's not looking for glory, according to actor Kit Harington.
The "Game of Thrones" star is shrugging off one of the biggest Jon Snow theories still left unanswered in either the books or the HBO series. The theory proposes that Jon is "The Prince That Was Promised" -- essentially a reborn hero who will save the world again from darkness.
But when The Huffington Post asked Harington about the theory, he had this to say:
"I think you have to wait and see what happens this year, and if we find out anything more about Jon. I think Jon would hate the term 'The Prince That Was Promised.' If someone turned to him and said, 'You're The Prince That Was Promised,' he just wouldn't pay much attention. That's what I love about him, so I don't really care about it either. You know, I think that's what's great about him. He's got very little ego on him."
Well, it's just like The Prince That Was Promised not to care!
Still, there's all kinds of evidence that Jon is the Prince. And now that his true lineage has been revealed -- with the theory "R+L=J" finally confirmed -- he seems like the best candidate for the title.
"Game of Thrones" Season 7 premieres July 16 on HBO.
