Sophie Turner had a « vile » experience kissing co-star Kit Harington for their upcoming horror film, « The Dreadful. »
Turner and Harington starred alongside each other in « Game of Thrones » as brother and sister from 2011 until 2019. After portraying siblings Sansa Stark and Jon Snow, their bond transcended TV and the duo found themselves just as close in real life.
After Turner suggested Harington for the lead role in « The Dreadful, » he pointed out filming might be a little awkward.

« And I was like, ‘What is he talking about?’ Then I was reading [the script] and it’s like, ‘Kiss, kiss, sex, kiss, sex…’ And then I’m like, ‘Oh, shoot, that’s my brother.’ »
