- Kit Harington: "Damn tired" in the finale of "Game of Thrones".
"Game of Thrones" star Kit Harington (37) can understand some fans' disappointment with the fantasy series' finale. "I think there were some interesting choices that didn't quite land," the Brit told men's magazine "GQ" about the 2019 series finale that sparked much criticism. But he also sought understanding: "I think if there was a mistake at the end of 'Thrones,' it was that we were all so damn tired. We couldn't have gone on any longer." If he sees pictures of himself from the final season now, he recognizes the exhaustion. "I had nothing left for another season."
Was there an alternative?
Harington played one of the main characters, the figure of Jon Snow, in the hit series. The successful show ended in 2019 after eight eventful seasons in a finale that was criticized by many fans as overstuffed and inconsistent.
Harington said he understands that some might have felt the series finale was rushed - "and I might agree with them. But I'm not sure there was an alternative."
The media often discussed the criticism directed towards the finale of "Game of Thrones," and many fans expressed their disappointment with the series' conclusions. Harington, acknowledging the criticism, stated, "I'm not sure there was an alternative."
