Goodbye, Jon Snow: Kit Harington From \u2018Game of Thrones\u2019 Leaves With $4M Net Worth<\/h2>\n
\n

\"Kit<\/p>\n

Through five seasons, fans have learned not to expect the creators of \u201cGame of Thrones\u201d to hold anything back. But the fifth season finale, which aired June 14, shocked viewers when one of the shows\u2019 most beloved and likable characters was killed off. In a violent assassination, members of the Night\u2019s Watch killed Jon Snow.<\/p>\n

While many fans still hold out hope that Jon Snow is not in fact dead and could return to \u201cGame of Thrones,\u201d Kit Harington \u2014\u00a0the actor who portrays the character \u2014\u00a0is not so optimistic.<\/p>\n

\u201cQuite honestly, I have never been told the future of things in this show, but this is the one time I have,\u201d Harington said in an interview with Entertainment Weekly<\/a>\u00a0(EW). \u201cThey sat me down and said, \u2018This is how it is.\u2019 \u2026 I\u2019m dead. I\u2019m not coming back next season. So that\u2019s all I can tell you, really.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kit Harington\u2019s Net Worth and \u201cGame of Thrones\u201d Salary<\/h2>\n

CelebrityNetWorth currently estimates Kit Harington\u2019s net worth at $4 million. But what was the actor paid for his \u201cGame of Thrones\u201d role?<\/p>\n

Deadline reported in October that Harrington\u00a0\u2014 along with others from the show, including Peter Dinklage, Lena Headey, Emilia Clarke and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau\u00a0\u2014 received \u201cmajor salary increases.\u201d The stars were believed to be making close to $300,000 an episode.<\/p>\n

According to Deadline and The Hollywood Reporter, Harington\u00a0was named as one of the \u201cGame of Thrones\u201d stars signing on for Seasons 6 and 7 in exchange for the pay increase. But in light of Jon Snow\u2019s shocking death, this information was not 100 percent accurate.<\/p>\n

When asked about the cast salary contract articles, Harington told EW,\u00a0\u201cAs far as the salary thing goes, that angered me when that story came out. I don\u2019t know where it came from, but it was inaccurate in many ways.\u201d<\/p>\n

The most obvious inaccuracy, Harington said, is that fans might believe that Snow will return for the show\u2019s sixth and seventh seasons. \u201cIt\u2019s going to put questions into your head and into fans\u2019 heads that things are not what they are,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s Next for Kit Harington?<\/h2>\n

Now, Harington said he\u2019s looking forward to new projects. \u201cI\u2019m in a very lucky place \u2014 I can turn things down and do what I want to do,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

That freedom likely also comes with financial freedom, as Harington\u2019s time on \u201cGame of Thrones\u201d has made him a popular actor who can command big-time salaries. \u201cThere\u2019s a couple movies I\u2019m looking at,\u201d Harington added. \u201cI might take a holiday. I might try writing. I\u2019m trying to figure it out.\u201d<\/p>\n
