Harington cited another instance when he became emotional and said it was during the table read for the last episode. “The second time was the very end. Every season, you read at the end of the last script ‘End of Season one,’ or ‘End of Season two,’ This read ‘End of Game of Thrones.’ And you realize, okay, it’s really happening,” the actor said. The eighth and final season of the show will air next year.
