Saying goodbye to Game of Thrones after Season 8 will be hard enough for fans of the hit HBO show but can you imagine what it must be like for the actors who have played these beloved roles for so many years?
For Kit Harington, playing Jon Snow means his 20s — he spent eight years playing this amazing role on Game of Thrones and it represents this particular time in his life. While Jon started off mostly at the Wall, he eventually traveled around Westeros and learned a great deal.
Harington did too as he talks about how nervous he was at the beginning and how incredible it was to work with Rose Leslie (Ygritte, whom he eventually married in real life). Check out what else he had to say.

For Lena Headey, who plays Cersei Lannister, portraying this role has given her opportunities to play some incredible moments that she knows wouldn’t have been possible on any other show.
She recalls a particular scene with Mark Addy (Robert Baratheon) that sort of set the stage for who Cersei would become — not that his behavior towards her was really an excuse. Check out what else she had to say.
