Aniron #1 Posted March 11, 2011 Anybody else thinks that Kit harringtons Jon Snow looks a lot like Orlando bloom ? All im gonna think while watching him on the show is his characters from Kingdom of Heaven, potc and troy. Uncanny resemblance! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Areo #2 Posted March 11, 2011 I don't think so. Orlando Bloom is for me more feminine. From what little we saw of Jon Snow during the trailers Kit will be able to portray him (when needed) as more badass and tough that Bloom ever was in his career. They do look alike to some extent, but Harington is darker and young, so probably the resemblance will fade over time. I guess as the series progresses we'll see, but once you've got him compared with Bloom it will probably be hard to get rid of this feeling of uncanny resemlance. Hope you succeed though, because it'll be better to appreciate him for himself and not constantly think of other characters. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smegma #3 Posted March 11, 2011 I don't think so at all - very different faces. Similar hair/eye coloring but that's it. The closest feature that they share may be their brow line. Otherwise their eye shape, lips, jawline, nose, cheekbones, forehead are all different. Could they play brothers in a movie? Sure, but movies/tv are always very loose in how they cast siblings - unless it's really important for them to look alike. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZombieWife #4 Posted March 11, 2011 I'm not picking up an Orlando Bloom vibe at all. Could just be me, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sekhmet #5 Posted March 12, 2011 Wow, what is the obsession of some people to say so-in-so looks like so-in-so?????? Another creeps me out thing. Oh, and a first post too. I'm so surprised!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Asha—Not Yara! #6 Posted March 12, 2011 I can see a bit of a resemblance but if you compare their pictures side by side, it really becomes clear that it's not an extremely striking resemblance at least to me. Sekhmet, I think you're overreacting just a little to the original poster. I don't see anything wrong with noticing a resemblance and asking if others do too, and not sure why it matters that it's his first post. I haven't noticed an overwhelming amount of topics created by people obsessing over which actors resemble what other actors unless those posts are usually confined to the casting subforum that I don't visit often.

daimonion #8 Posted March 13, 2011 Kind of... When he told Benjen in one of the teasers "I'm ready" followed by Benjens "You're not going. You're no Ranger, Jon" - i totally thought of Orlando Bloom. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had to play it 5-6 times. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ser_not_appearing_yet #10 Posted March 14, 2011 Joseph Mawle owns. Probably my second favourite actor/actress on the show. Should be Ned. Love all you Americans finding his accent impenetrable.Reckon comparing Kit to Orlando is a little harsh on the kid. I'm sure his range is at least somewhat wider.

Jonias Snow #11 Posted March 15, 2011 Speaking of looking like somone, it gives me an idea. Why don't we and other GoT sites spread an internet rumor like a few days before the show airs, that Bieber makes an appearance. Then afterwards we can say, well I guess the rumor was false and we where gullible too. Never know, all the Biebettes may become enraptured with Jon, Robb, Jaime and Bran and become avid watchers.

smegma #20 Posted March 16, 2011 I personally wouldn't kick either one of them out of my bed. ;)I took a nap after watching one of the HBO videos and somehow that influenced my dreaming and I had an affair with Kit Harrington. We drank a lot and I could barely understand what he was saying in my dream (how ridiculous is that?!) and he said he thought I had beautiful bones. Apparently my subconscious is pretty stupid. But it was a HOT dream. I'm also way too old for him so I feel dirty. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
