VIDEO – GAME OF GROANS –

Feb. 24, 2022 – Harington says that when some people find out that he’s playing the role of Henry V, their first thought is of his Game of Thrones character Jon Snow. While he admits that there might be some similarities at first glance, he says that resurrecting Snow is “definitely not what we’re going for.”

Because of the modern staging of the play, it’s in “an alternate universe, if the monarchy were still in charge.” Harington noted that he was “very keen not to do swords.” There’s an element of me always trying to get away from that comparison, but at the same time, you’re not going to, so why try? A large portion of the audience coming to this will be fans of that show, and that’s a great thing,” Harington told The Guardian.
