Sophie Turner and Kit Harington, together again: the new project of the 'Game of Thrones' actors

The last few months have been somewhat turbulent for Sophie Turner. Last September, the actress announced the end of her marriage to Joe Jonas, after seven years together and two daughters together. The end of this relationship made a lot of headlines, and was highly covered in the media. Although the actress was initially affected, her professional commitments have helped her overcome this bump. The 27-year-old will be part of the upcoming horror film The Dreadful, and on the set she will reunite with Kit Harington, her Game of Thrones co-star.

This is a highly desired reunion among fans of the HBO series. The two last appeared together on screen in 2019, when the final episodes of the series aired. In fiction, the couple of actors played the siblings Sansa Stark and Jon Snow, two of the most prominent characters in the series and who have had the greatest impact on the public.

This Friday, the Deadline portal reported that Sophie and Kit will star in a film written and directed by renowned horror filmmaker Natasha Kermani. The film is set in England, during the Wars of the Roses in the 15th century. She will play Anne, whose life changes when Kit's character returns from the dead. The production has managed to bring together two of the most beloved characters in the Game of Thrones universe.

As we said, this news comes to light after Sophie asked a judge to dismiss a child abduction lawsuit she had filed against her ex-husband, singer Joe Jonas. The brother of Nick and Kevin Jonas, 34, filed for divorce from Sophie in September 2023 and their battle for custody of their daughters Willa, three years old, and Delphine, 17 months, made thousands of headlines.

The former couple was previously involved in a conflict over where their children would live. For her part, Turner claimed that Joe prevented them from traveling to the United Kingdom with her by taking the children's passports. The actress and the singer began their relationship in 2016, and got engaged in 2017. The wedding took place in May 2019. Since then, they had been inseparable. Something that changed at the end of this past 2023.

For his part, Kit has been trying to overcome an addiction to alcohol. The actor has been leaning on his wife of six years, Rose Leslie, who was also part of the cast of Game of Thrones. His problems came to a head after the series ended in 2019, and he checked into a Privé-Swiss retreat in Connecticut to recover. The couple shares two children together: a two-year-old son and a seven-month-old daughter. Without a doubt, this project sheds light on the difficult recent months for both performers.
