You may know him as Jon Snow from ‘Game of Thrones.’ You may also know him as Dane Whitman, AKA Black Knight, from Marvel Studios’ ‘Eternals.’ Kids may remember him from his voice as Eret, the former antagonist and present trusted friend of Hiccup, the protagonist in the computer-animated ‘How to Train Your Dragon’ movies. Eret is there in ‘How to Train Your Dragon 2’ and ‘How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World.’ And for those of you who aren’t familiar with Harington’s work in animation, here, have a look at him practicing his lines with Toothless in this video.
Harington got his big break in ‘Game of Thrones,’ whose first season was released in 2011. The show ran for 8 Seasons till 2019, and he features there throughout. He has also been a part of the shows ‘Criminal: UK,’ ‘Extrapolations,’ ‘Industry,’ and ‘Modern Love.’ As far as movies are concerned, ‘Testament of Youth,’ ‘Pompeii,’ ‘Gunpowder,’ ‘7 Days in Hell,’ and ‘Brimstone’ are among his well-known pieces of work. But what has got viewers on their feet is the report of a ‘Game of Thrones’ spin-off based on Jon Snow. Is it happening? Well, if you can find it in this list, rest assured that it is because here are Kit Harington’s upcoming projects.
1. Eternal Return (TBA)
‘Eternal Return’ is a romantic movie written and directed by Yaniv Raz. The story follows Cass, a young woman, whom we see reach her point of emotional invulnerability. This is when Virgil, a cartographer, along with his partner Malcolm, a Renaissance man, decides to help her regain her life’s meaning and re-establish her belief in love by traveling back in time, thanks to Virgil’s talent of creating maps of imaginary places. The film stars Naomi Scott as Cass, Harington as Virgil, and Simon Callow as Malcolm. Addition cast members include Sonoya Mizuno, Jay Lycurgo, and Nathan Hall. Currently in its post-production stage, ‘Eternal Return’ is slated for release in Argentina on May 15, 2025. A US release date is awaited.
2. The Dreadful (TBA)
Harington will reunite with his ‘Game of Thrones’ co-star Sophie Turner for ‘The Dreadful,’ a gothic horror film currently undergoing production. Other cast members include Marcia Gay Harden, Laurence O’Fuarain, and Jonathan Howard. Written and helmed by Natasha Kermani, the film is set against the backdrop of the War of the Roses (a series of civil wars fought over control of the English throne from 1455 to 1487). The story follows Anne (Turner) and her mother-in-law Morwen (Harden), who live a solitary, harsh life on the outskirts of society. Soon, a man named Jago (Harington) shows up from their past and sets off a sequence of events that become a turning point for Anne. Details regarding the release of this intriguing project are awaited.
3. Industry Season 4 (TBA)
The HBO/BBC business drama series ‘Industry’ has been renewed for a fourth season. Filming will begin in Cardiff, Wales, in the spring of 2025. Mickey Down and Konrad Kay, who created the show, will continue to lead the writers. Given how the third installment concludes, with an emotionally wrecked Rishi Ramdani who loses his wife, Eric’s London office shut down, Yasmin about to marry Henry, and Robert pitching his startup to a different company, the fourth season’s cast is expected to include Harington as Henry Muck, Ken Leung as Eric Tao, Myha’la Herrold as Harper Stern, Sagar Radia as Rishi Ramdani, Marisa Abela as Yasmin Kara-Hanani, Harry Lawtey as Robert Spearing, and Ben Lloyd-Hughes as Greg Grayson.

Desperate to compete in the Grand National again, Paul teams up with Kate O’Leary and her wild Centaur named Chariot. Paul and Chariot clash at first but eventually form an unbreakable bond, taking the racing world by storm. No other cast member has been revealed yet. The film is in its pre-production stage and more details are eagerly awaited.
