10 Actors Who Suffered The Most After Game Of Thrones
1. Kit Harrington
Kit Harrington, who played beloved bastard Jon Snow throughout all 8 seasons, went through hell and back during production. Because he was one of the faces of the show, he had to deal with a lot of the stress and strain during production, including having to lie to fans after shooting the fifth season so they wouldn't be disappointed.
Harrington started with the show during his 20s, and the fact that he was 32 when the show finished left him with a personal crisis. Harrington has stated in interviews that because Game Of Thrones was such a big part of his life when he was so young, its left him wondering what else there is to accomplish, leaving him in a very vulnerable spot. He knows he was an integral part of the show, and the mental pressure that he was dealing with when it all ended left him worse for wear. This got so bad that he has had to seek professional help and enter rehab for “personal issues”.
However, Harrington has since recovered from his personal crisis and has gone on to star in films far different from his role in Game Of Thrones such as The Death & Life of John F. Donovan and upcoming Marvel superhero movie Eternals.
