Sophie Turner has pitched her Game of Thrones brother Kit Harington to star in the new horror film The Dreadful with her
«They were trying to find someone for that role, and I was like, ‘You can’t not have Kit,'» says Turner.
Sophie Turner is sharing the love! Turner spoke with The Times about her future films, Joan and The Dreadful. Explaining that she will be playing alongside Game of Thrones co-star Kit Harington in the latter,
the actress stated that she had suggested him for the role. «They were trying to find someone for that role, and I was like, ‘You can’t not have Kit,'» recalled the actress. «It’s set around the time of the Wars of the Roses, so we’ll probably be floating about in robes on clifftops again.»
The Dark Phoenix star also discussed her experience as a child actress, beginning her role in Game of Thrones at the age of 15.
«I’d say to any parent, if your child wants to get into the industry, wait until their frontal lobe has formed, which is 25,» she said when asked for guidance.
«I would highly discourage them from getting into it before they can fully process what that means.» Turner has struggled with depression and an eating disorder throughout her career, eventually divorcing now-ex-husband
Joe Jonas in 2023 after four years of marriage and two children together. Reflecting on the past, she credits her Game of Thrones sister, Maisie Williams, who played Arya Stark, with helping her get through.
