Kit Harington Was "Genuinely Angered" By This 'Game Of Thrones' Petition
"As noted in a recent New York Times interview with Harington, nearly 2 million people signed a viral petition that called showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss "woefully incompetent," and asked for HBO to remake "a final season that makes sense." Harington was "genuinely angered" by this, he told the outlet in his profile published on Jan. 11. "Like, how dare you? Sorry, that's just how I feel. I think it was a level of idiocy that can only come about through social media.""
""In development, you look at every angle, and you see whether it's worth it," Harington explained to Screen Rant in 2024. "And currently, it's not. Currently, it's off the table, because we all couldn't find the right story to tell that we were all excited about enough. So, we decided to lay down tools with it for the time being. There may be a time in the future where we return to it, but at the moment, no. It's firmly on the shelf.""
Industry Season 4 brings Kit Harington back as Henry Muck after his earlier high-profile role as Jon Snow on Game of Thrones. The 2019 series finale prompted intense fan backlash, including a viral petition signed by nearly 2 million people calling the showrunners "woefully incompetent" and demanding a remade final season. Harington said he was "genuinely angered" by that response and attributed its scale to social media. A Jon Snow spinoff entered development but was shelved because creators could not find a story they all felt excited about. Harington has not watched the prequel House of the Dragon and does not plan to.
