Sophie Turner’s eyebrow-raising confession about kissing Kit Harington on set just got a visual twist and fans are losing it.
Back in August 2025, Turner stunned late-night viewers when she admitted that filming an intimate scene with her former Game of Thrones co-star for their horror movie The Dreadful was, in her words, “absolutely revolting.” Now, a newly surfaced clip from the film appears to back up her claim, showing what many viewers are calling unmistakable awkward energy between the longtime friends.
Turner, who also produced the film, revealed during an appearance on Late Night with Seth Meyers that she and Harington had to mentally prepare before filming their kissing scenes. According to the actress, that preparation didn’t exactly pay off. She said they tried to hype themselves up, but once cameras rolled, things quickly went downhill. Turner described their first kiss as so uncomfortable that both of them were gagging.
The moment struck fans as especially ironic given the pair’s history. For nearly a decade, Turner and Harington played siblings on HBO’s Game of Thrones, developing a famously close off-screen bond. That dynamic has made the romantic turn in The Dreadful even more jarring for longtime viewers.
Entertainment Tonight recently released footage from the film, and social media users immediately began dissecting every second. Harington previously called the experience “bizarre,” noting the strange shift from portraying family members to romantic leads. Online reactions have ranged from playful jokes about Westeros to secondhand embarrassment over the palpable discomfort in the clip.
With The Dreadful set for a limited theatrical release, the buzz surrounding that one scene may end up being the film’s most talked-about moment, whether the cast likes it or not.
