Game of Thrones actor Kit Harington will appear in the movie Seventh Son, which opens in a few months time. Kit has spoken about the movie, revealing his reasons behind accepting the role, admitting that it was mainly down to the fact that Jeff Bridges and Julianne Moore were starring in the film.
Scene from Seventh Son
Harington was chatting to the guys over at Collider, when he said, "I wanted to do this film ‘cause I got to work exclusively with Jeff Bridges and Julianne Moore, which is something I really wanted to do when I found out the casting. It was a really exciting, action-packed role. It was a lot of fun. I have worked in this genre before, but what was interesting about this project was working in a different category within this genre."
He added, "People seem to forget there are different categories, sometimes. They group everything into fantasy or sci-fi, but within those genres, there are other things. This was different from anything I had done. It was a wonderful mixture between dark and light. It has the elements of the children’s novel in it, and it also has the elements of what horrible acts can be done by humans. I thought that was a really interesting mix to play with."
Julianne Moore is in Seventh Son
As well as starring Kit Harington, Jeff Bridges and Julianne Moore, Seventh Son also stars Antje Traue and Ben Barnes. Seventh Son is based on the Joseph Delaney book, has been directed by Sergei Bodrov and will open on October 25 in the UK, before hitting the big screen in the US on January 17, 2014.
