Kit Harrington says filming sex scenes with Sophie Turner years after Game of Thrones was “gross but it was fine.” “Obviously l’ve known her since being a child,” he tells Peter Dinklage. “She feels like my younger sister.” Dinklage adds: “She is!”

God that must’ve been so awkward
I think he perfectly described how weird that would feel. It’d be hard not to cringe or laugh a lot, but that would result in even more takes
Little cousin actually tyvm
I don’t know much about him as a person but I’m glad he found it weird and awkward. I’m sure plenty of men would have been sexualising her since she was a child. It says something good about his character that he clearly was not.
She was the better actress of this show? Would he drop that in front of Lena Headey
Okay they glazing her a bit much but I love how they support each other lol
May I just say… They have all aged like fine wine.
ETA: Y’all, I’m 35. I don’t mean they are “aging”. I mean they got better looking in the past few years.
That clip of them gagging after the kiss take is so funny
I’m not a Jonsa shipper (if you’re in the asoiaf/got fandom you know what I mean😂😂) but Kit and Sophie had wild chemistry in the last few seasons of game of thrones. Like those were not sibling glances 💀 them being cast in romantic roles opposite each other doesn’t surprise me
I always find it so interesting when actors talk about their favorite scene partners. It really gets to the art of acting.
I love game of thrones, I like them both, I have no experience with film. That said, I think if I viewed someone as a sibling, of all the movies in the world, I would choose literally any one where we weren’t banging?
ETA: I think it’s so funny I’m being downvoted. If given the choice, you would select a movie where you simulate sex with someone you view as a sibling?
It’s always funny to me to hear actors gas up other actors. Like, cmon Kit, Sophie is mediocre. She’s fine. Not gross, but fine.
Glas to see Sophie is getting the praise she deserves. She was an amazing Sansa.
Describing her as “still” is actually really perfect because the scenes where Sansa was being verbally/emotionally/physically abused by Joffrey when Tyrion was around she would always be holding still, like she couldn’t move or else she’d break.
Sophie really nailed the scene in the episode after the red wedding when Tyrion goes to tell her what happened and she barely moves or says a word, she just stares at him with red rimmed eyes. It was so haunting and sad, her realizing she’s completely alone. And her doing that at such a young age is extremely impressive.
Have they spent much time together? Obviously they met when she was a kid and probably saw each other a little(?) doing promo/awards over the years, but weren’t they filming completely separately, in different parts of the world even, for most of the show?
May I just say, in that case, it was far more disgusting to watch than it ever was to film! The sex scenes with Kathleen Turner and William Hurt were so much better. I’m sorry I don’t wanna see a naked grown woman lay an egg. Call me a prude if you want. I’m not tho. I just have a thing about grown women laying ostrich eggs or dinosaur eggs or whatever they were.
