When sure actors play characters for a really very long time, it may be arduous to image them as anybody else. That feeling turns into amplified when two former co-stars reunite for a brand new and completely totally different challenge. Properly, now I’m feeling all these emotions as two of Recreation of Thrones’ solid members, Sophie Turner and Equipment Harington, are starring in a film collectively. Nevertheless, to make issues weirder, these performers who performed siblings on GOT are taking part in lovers on this new film. That’s a form of arduous to grasp, however don’t fear, Turner is hilariously battling it too.
For context, Sophie Turner and Equipment Harington are set to star within the gothic horror movie The Dreadful. In the mean time, it’s not on the 2025 film schedule, however in a Vogue video, the actress expressed her pleasure concerning the upcoming movie and reuniting along with her GOT brother, saying:
I did a film final 12 months which I am actually enthusiastic about with my previous however superb pal Equipment Harington, who performed my brother on Recreation of Thrones. We’re doing a gothic horror, however we play lovers. Sorry guys, it is actually bizarre for all of us.
To state the apparent, Harington and Turner usually are not really associated, so should you take Recreation of Thrones out of it, this isn’t bizarre in any respect. Nevertheless, they did play Jon Snow and Sansa Stark within the extraordinary fantasy adaptation for eight seasons.
So, for many people who’ve and nonetheless do watch Recreation of Thrones with an HBO Max subscription, it’s arduous to see these two as something aside from siblings. The HBO sequence acquired the world speaking, and to this present day, most of its primary solid is finest recognized for his or her roles in it. After I consider Harington and Turner, the Stark household and their characters are the primary issues that come to thoughts.
Picturing them as something however siblings is, as Turner mentioned, “actually bizarre.” That is very true as a result of the sequence ran from 2011 to 2019, and we actually watched each actors develop up on display screen, as Turner was 15 when she started taking part in Sansa and Harington was 24 when Season 1 premiered.
Nevertheless, I’ll recover from it identical to they seemingly did, contemplating they made this film collectively, as a result of I like the thought of a Recreation of Thrones reunion on the large display screen. Plus, The Dreadful sounds fascinating. The truth that it’s a gothic horror had me hooked already. Nevertheless, Deadline reported that the movie, which was written and directed by Natasha Kermani, follows a lady (Turner) who has been residing in solitude along with her mother-in-law through the Struggle of the Roses when a person (Harington) from her previous returns.
Signal me up! And I’ll do my finest to faux like I don’t know that the movie’s stars performed siblings for years on Recreation of Thrones. Possibly I’ll even attempt to faux like I’ve by no means seen GOT (which Turner hasn’t), and that may assist me neglect the on-screen familial ties.
It doesn’t matter what, I do know I’ll transfer previous it, although, as a result of, seemingly like Turner, my pleasure to see the actors reunite trumps the emotions I’ve about these former on-screen siblings taking part in on-screen lovers.
