Kit Harington told the press at the Emmy Awards on Sunday that he hasn’t seen the final season of Game of Thrones.
The actor was asked about the controversy surrounding the show’s season that aired in April and May this year. His denial that he even watched it got some laughs from both the press and the Game of Thrones crew members that were with him.
“I still haven’t seen the show. So that’s how I dealt with that controversy. I haven’t seen the final season,” Harington said. “But I know what it took to shoot it and it was hard and everyone put all of their love and effort into it. And controversy I think for us…we knew what we were doing was right, story-wise, and we knew it was right for the characters because we lived with them for 10 years. And I think that…controversy for us didn’t really affect it.”
