AceShowbiz - Kit Harington seemingly can't keep a secret about his status on "Game of Thrones" any longer. Following long-running speculation about his character Jon Snow's fate, the actor has hinted at his return for the show's sixth season.
Speaking to Belgian magazine Humo, Harington admitted, "I often felt frustrated as well. I had to pass on amazing parts because I was attached to 'Game of Thrones'. So the show is like a [double-edged] sword to me: I owe a lot to it, but at the same time it has almost completely drained me. Oh well, I try not to think about it too much. The important thing is that I now know exactly how long I am still under contract, and in the meantime...."
Asked how may more seasons he's under contract for, Harington replied, "Nice try [laughs]. I can't talk about that. Let's just say that 'Game of Thrones' will remain a part of my life for a while, I'll probably be in my thirties when it's over. One thing's for sure: the day I'm no longer on 'Thrones' is the day I'll bury myself in movie projects [laughs]."
The 28-year-old previously insisted that his character's "quite dead." However, he has been spotted many times in the past few months around the set in Belfast, where the sixth season is being filmed.
Now with Harington seemingly confirming his return for the next installment, fans can continue speculating on how Jon Snow survives the stabbing by his Night's Watch brothers.
