The Internet and its forever bustling pop fan wars are proof that being a fan is a full-time job. However, some take it more seriously than others and while this often results in a mind-gobbling tale that is told on a podcast, the case is different for Kit Harington. Officially known as Jon Snow, thanks to his legacy in Game of Thrones, Kit Harington turned his fandom into his job as he knocked on the doors of Mickey Down and Konrad Kay.

All set to ride the wave as Henry in Industry season 3, there is one reason why Harington is over the moon for this character and it has everything to do with Game of Thrones.

While Industry may have only released its third season yesterday all with Kit Harington as the cherry on top, viewers have gobbled it up like hot cross buns. Among the many things that they have taken into notice apart from the evident seductiveness that he oozes, which, as a matter of fact, is just as intentional as it is natural, is the character's humor. The reason why humor happens to be a defining trait for Henry, as per Mickey Down's statement to Deadline, was because Harington joked that "after 10 years of Game of Thrones, he wasn’t able to make one joke."

Being the funny guy as he has coined, not being able to joke around was quite the struggle for the Emmy-nominated star. His natural knack for humor added to the duration of abstinence from making a joke on the Game of Thrones set up the stage perfectly for the actor to be the funny guy in Industry season 3.

With the freedom to crack one joke per minute being one of them, the list of why Kit Harington is hyped up to be a part of Industry runs long.

From its very first season, the Mickey Down and Konrad Kay created show had the audience reeling with excitement owing to the corporate set-up, which had even Kit Harington signing up as a fan. Therefore, as he transitioned from a viewer to an actor on the show, Harrington could not be any more grateful. However, happiness does not have everything to do with Industry, it also has a lot to do with Game of Thrones, and ultimately how different the two characters are.

The actor, while speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, acknowledged that his character in Industry has his moral compass going haywire, which was far from the case with Jon Snow, who even left the best dog behind in his pursuit. Therefore, playing Henry not only gave him the freedom to get in tune with his humorous side, which he was deeply grateful for, but also to play a flawed character.
