Sophie Turner reveals vile kiss with Kit Harington on filming set

Sophie Turner spoke on Late Night with Seth Meyers about a kiss she had to share with Kit Harington while filming The Dreadful. The pair, known for their eight season sibling dynamic on Game of Thrones, were cast as the lead and the female lead in the gothic drama. Turner described the moment as vile and said both actors retched when the first kissing scene arrived, given their long history together on screen.

Turner also explained how she sent the script to Harington and that he warned it would feel really weird. The Dreadful is produced by Turner and stars her as Anne, with Morwen played by Marcia Gay Harden; the story follows a family on the social outskirts as a man from their past returns. The project does not yet have a release date. Separately, Turner teased a moment at a Hollywood event in which a wave she made at a famous actress influenced a celebrity engagement, something she says she cannot name, but which generated online buzz and fan speculation.

This interview shows how celebrities mix promotion with personal anecdotes. Sharing behind the scenes can heighten interest in a project, yet it also invites scrutiny of private dynamics and past roles. The odd coupling of GoT memories with a gothic drama underscores how fans connect actors to their on-screen histories.

The piece also highlights how small social moments at public events can become talking points for days, sometimes affecting reputations and relationships. Turner’s candor reflects a broader trend in which celebrities use talk shows to shape narratives around projects while inviting discussion about boundaries between work and personal life.

Finally, the discussion around performance and kissing scenes reveals the practical realities of adapting beloved characters for new formats. It reminds readers that films and shows rely on human chemistry as much as on scripts and sets, even when that chemistry becomes a source of entertainment itself.
