-Kit, last time you were here. First of all,
welcome back to the show. Last time you were here,
we did a bit called "Kit Harington Straight Up
Goes For It." -Yes. -And you just sang
"Drops of Jupiter" by Train. That was the whole bit. We asked probably
30 different celebrities to do this throughout our years
being on the show. And everyone said, "No." You're the only one
with the guts to do it. [ Cheers and applause ]
-Thank you. -And I will never forget that. And I just want to know
from this a
ppearance, did you get any offers? Just tell us what's up. -Worryingly few, actually. -You didn't get anything? -Not a single offer
of anything musical, which was surprising to me,
actually. I got a few texts
from friends and family. -That's nice.
-Yeah. -They didn't know
quite why I did it. [ Laughter ] -Did they not -- But the best is
I go to you, I go, "Kit, do you want
to do this bit?" And you go, "Yeah, I don't
really sing." I go, "That's the whole point. That's exactly what we want." -And
then I got in here,
and you were like, "No one -- We've been asking people
to do this for years. No one's done it,"
and I was like, "What?" -Oh, yeah. I didn't want
to tell you -- I didn't want
to tell you that then. I waited till you did the bit,
then I told you the truth. Yeah, exactly, yeah. How's your son doing? -He's good. He's 2. He's -- yeah, we think he's -- we think he might be
quite smart. -Ooh.
-Which is... -Oh, that's good.
-Yeah. -That's a good thing.
-Well, it's surprising, seeing
as we're both actors. No, we're like,
we're not sure where that's -- quite where
that's come from. -You don't want him
to be an actor? -Well, we -- like,
he loves applause. We like -- We sort of, every time
he does something good, we give him applause,
and we're worrying that's kind of pushing him
towards acting. We're a bit like, "Eh, you might be too smart
for this, you know, go save the world. We're sick, we had no choice. -Yeah.
-But he's really good. He's about to get the shock
of his life,
which is that he's about to get
a brother or sister. [ Cheers and applause ] -Are you serious? Congratulations. No way! -Oh, yeah.
-Pregnant? -Yeah, yeah. Thank you.
-That's fantastic. You got a new baby coming. That's unbelievable!
-I know, I know. Yeah --
-Are you excited? Are you nervous?
-I'm so -- I'm terrified. Like, I --
[ Laughter ] You know, with the first baby, you're, like, walking on clouds and dancing through fields
of daisies for nine months. -Yeah.
-Well, the man is, anyway. [ La
ughs ]
-Yeah. -But this time you go, like the reality check
comes much shorter. You're, like,
you get practical real quick. -Yeah, because you know what's
in store. -Yeah, two of them.
-And what does you son think about the new baby? -I'm not sure
he's quite conceptually understood it just yet. He, like -- we're trying
to get him ready for it. We point at Rose's tummy,
and we say, "Mommy's baby. Mommy's baby."
-That's right. -And he points at his tummy
and goes, "My baby." -[ Laughs ] -I'm quite
sure that's --
that's, yeah, well, you'll know soon enough.
-[ Laughs ] Yeah. I saw that you recently attended the "Game of Thrones" convention
in Los Angeles. -Yeah.
-That's a -- [ Cheers and applause ] What is that like for you
to go to those things? It was like, it was a bit
like going back in time. You know, I know it's only been
four years or something, but it feels longer. And I went to it, and it's nice seeing the fans,
and it's kind of amazing that that show
has still got such a fan bas
e, and it's continuing on
in its own way. -Well, I mean,
there's rumors out there that there's a there's
a "Game of Thrones" spin-off that features your character,
Jon Snow. [ Cheers and applause ] Is it happening? -Well, I don't know. Do you want to have it? [ Laughs ]
-Yeah. Yeah, I do want to have it. I do want it.
I think people would love it. -Yeah.
-I'd love to see you as Jon Snow. -Yeah, I can't say
anything on that, but I don't know, man, like. -Well, what -- what would stop
you from doi
ng it? Do you miss it at all? -I walked down the street, and,
you know, I get recognized a little less nowadays, and...
-Oh, wow. -...and it kind of hurts my ego,
you know. [ Laughter ] No, I'm pretty close to,
like, putting on some furs, but. -So it would -- So what would it take for you
to do this spin-off series? Would it take -- Do you want us
to ignore you? -Yeah, I think, like,
I've got a tally in my head of how few photos
I get asked for in a day. -Mm-hmm.
-And when it gets below a certai
n number,
I think I'll do the spin-off. Yeah.
-All right. So fans of Kit Harington, do not ask him for a photo
for the next -- If you do for the next two days,
by Monday, we could have an answer,
and we could see a "Game of Thrones" spin off
right now with Jon Snow, all right?
We'll do this together. We'll do it together. Let's talk about your new movie,
"Baby Ruby". Congrats. You play
a new dad in this film when you were actually
a brand-new dad. Did that help you
with the performance? -Yeah, t
hat was another level
of insanity. Like, I left,
I mean, think about this -- I left a screaming child
at home to go and do a movie about a screaming child. -What's wrong with you? -There's, like --
and on this set, you had twins. So if one stopped screaming,
they'd bring the other one on. You can't pinch your child
anymore, isn't it? -Yeah, yeah,
you don't do that anymore. -It's not allowed.
-No. -Yeah.
-So that's wild. But so you do this film,
which, by the way, it is -- it's a thriller, it's s
cary. -Yeah, it's a kind of thriller. It's a horror thriller
comedy thing. -Yeah, kind of.
-You're allowed to laugh. -You're allowed to laugh
at it a little bit, yeah. -It's funny. So it follows -- it's about postpartum psychosis
and about the lack of care that mothers get after birth. And so that's
an important message. But it's really --
it's really not about me. -Yeah, yeah. -I had to put my ego aside.
-Yeah, yeah. It's not about you
for this one, yeah. I want to show everyone a clip. Here's
Kit Harington
in "Baby Ruby". Take a look at this. -Who wants Ruby? -[ Breathing heavily ] You're still wearing your apron? -Yeah, well, your message,
it said you're in danger, so I came as fast as I could. And she's okay, so no more sneaking around
where you don't belong. Stay here. I'm gonna
go upstairs and get cleaned up. You're gonna stay right here. And then when I come back down,
we can talk, okay? You're gonna by okay?
-Yes, sure. -Good. -Whoa! Come on! Kit Harington, everyone. "Baby Ruby
" is in theaters
and on demand now.

I'm really happy that his relationship with rose is still going strong. They always seemed like a great match to me it's almost like Jon, and ygritte's relationship has happy ending after all.
I went to high school with Kit, itโs still so surreal seeing someone from a little school in the middle of the Worcestershire countryside make it so big! Very proud!
HE REALLY TEASES IT WHEN HE SAID I CAN'T SAY ANYTHING ON THAT ๐๐
We met him years ago at a comic con in Chicago just after GOT ended and he was genuinely one of the nicest people I have ever met. Genuinely made a point to connect with each person, and seemed really pleased to meet him every one. Stand up guy.
I never get tired of seeing Kit Harington
We need sequel ASAP !!! Gosh I absolutely love kit as John snow he will forever be my favorite characters ever created ๐บโ๏ธ.
I'm so happy for Kit and Rose, they are one of the strongest Hollywood couples if not the strongest.
He sounds so different with an American accent. I love this man so much
I want a Jon Snow spin-off! Make it happen. Love Jon Snow and Kit
Jon & Ygritte....absolutely loved them on GoT. It's only fitting that they're in love off-screen, too! You could tell their chemistry was off the charts! And I'm so happy for them both!!
Kit is an amazing actor, I saw him last year as Henry V at Donmar Warehouse Theatre in London. His performance was SPECTACULAR, total success and can't wait for his new projects Baby Ruby, Extrapolations series, Blood for Dust or of course as Jooon again!( Come on HBO!) What amazing a lovely man! Congrats to Kit and Rose! Great interview! ๐๐
I just love kitโs natural personality, so great. Love him
"We think he might be quite smart ... we're not sure quite where that's come from." That kid's first words are gonna be "you know nothing, Jon Snow."
A new baby! So sweet. I hope they do truly love each other and treat each other well. I get the feeling Rose is very supportive of him and I imagine he is the same to her. Bless these guys. ๐ฅน
Probably the most loved actor from GOT
Kit casually wiping his hand off on his pants after shaking Jimmyโs hand lmao
Hes such a nice guy love hearing him talk about his family and congrats on new baby coming ๐
Congrats Kit and Rose on the new baby on the way. ๐ถ๐ฅฐ
Glad to see Kit doing well. Cannot wait for the sequel and congrats to him Rose on their kid!
The handshake at 2:05 made my day.
