Star Kit Harington (Jon Snow) recently revealed that creators David Benioff and D. B. Weiss have an unorthodox method of keeping him in check -- and it is absolutely hilarious. The actor explained to The Guardian that they have unreleased "Game of Thrones" footage that they've been holding over his head, and every once in a while, they threaten to unveil it.
As it turns out, the original "Game of Thrones" pilot didn't turn out so well, and the episode had to be re-filmed. Harington says it was full of mistakes and "had nothing different about it." Although he himself hasn't even seen it, he doesn't want anyone else to, either -- a fact Benioff and Weiss like to use against him.
"They say, if I ever piss them off too much, they'll release it on YouTube," he told the newspaper. "Every now and then, they send me a screengrab, just as a threat."
Brilliant, right? They don't even have to say anything. Sure, it might be blackmail, if you want to get technical, but it seems like more of a joke than anything mean-spirited. The unreleased pilot can't be that embarrassing, can it?
Unfortunately for fans, the footage will probably stay safely in the vault and we'll never know.
