Hollywood star Kit Harington is uncomfortable with his sex symbol status. The 36-year-old actor gained a global sex symbol after playing Jon Snow in the series ‘Game of Thrones’, but Kit never wanted to become so well-known for his good looks.
“I never got into acting to be a sex symbol or a heart-throb. I got into acting because I love playing characters and not being myself. But yeah, it goes with the territory because I am a young male leading actor and with that goes an aspect of work that I guess I am… not actually very comfortable with sometimes,” Harington told Candis magazine.
Kit Harington thinks he has to “work very hard” to prove he’s more than just his good looks. He continued: “I think it was Leonardo DiCaprio who always said how p***** off he was to be put into that box because it means you have to work extra hard to get out of it. I’m not saying, ‘Woe is me’ because it gets me working. But you do have to work very hard not to get boxed into that,” reports aceshowbiz.com.
