Channel 4 news recently interviewed Kit Harrington about his upcoming disaster movie, Pompeii, directed by Paul W. S. Anderson which is yet to be released in the UK. The Jon Snow double act discuss Game of Thrones, an awkward encounter and living in the golden age of television. Yes, of course there is some discussion between the illegitimate child of Ned Stark and his news reading namesake!
Set in 79 A.D., POMPEII tells the epic story of Milo (Kit Harington), a slave turned invincible gladiator who finds himself in a race against time to save his true love Cassia (Emily Browning), the beautiful daughter of a wealthy merchant who has been unwillingly betrothed to a corrupt Roman Senator. As Mount Vesuvius erupts in a torrent of blazing lava, Milo must fight his way out of the arena in order to save his beloved as the once magnificent Pompeii crumbles around him.
