Kit Harington was shocked that the Night King was not killed by Jon Snow

In the eighth and final season of HBO's Game of Thrones, Arya's death in killing the Night King surprised not only fans, but also Kit Harington, who plays Jon Snow in the show. According to Maisie Williams, who plays Arya, Harington spent the entire eighth season thinking that the Night King's fate belonged to Jon Snow. But Williams' Arya eventually became the hero who defeated the evil Night King.

Recently, in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Arya's Maisie Williams said: " Harington also wanted things to go in that direction, and he even said, 'Things will go in that direction. In Season 3, someone told me (Harington) that I'm going to kill the Night King.' Then he read the script and it turned out to be Arya (killing the Night King), " Williams said with a smile. "Yes, I think it's too obvious. To be honest, I'm very happy that Arya killed the Night King. I think I have the best plot in the final season. "

Maisie Williams is currently starring in Disney's The New Mutants, which is finally hitting theaters after years of delays, while Game of Thrones producers 2DB have already picked their next project, a Netflix TV adaptation of The Three-Body Problem.
