The 31-year-old actor, who has played Jon Snow across eight seasons of the show, says he will cut his hair short after wrapping up Game of Thrones. The Entertainment Weekly reported that Harington has expressed his wish to cut his signature long hair.
Kit said, “I’d like to step away and enjoy the obscurity, cut my hair, make myself less recognisable as the character and go do and some other things with a completely new look and tone”.
When asked exactly how short will he go? Harington said, “Short-short. The beard will be harder to get rid of 1 I quite like the beard. I like having the long hair and beard both, but it will be like ritualistic thing. I can’t go into my next role looking the same. This role was brilliant, but I’ll need to get rid of Jon Snow”.
