You Have to See Jon Snow Out of Game of Thrones and With Short Hair in the 1940s

Do you love seeing the Game of Thrones stars out of context? By far, Kit Harington in the upcoming adaptation of Testament of Youth is one of the most jarring examples — but boy, does he look fabulous. Sporting short hair and a clean shave, Harington plays Roland, the love interest to Vera (Alicia Vikander), a girl who comes of age in WWI. The real Vera's memoir is the basis for this film, which depicts women's place in wartime Britain, but the trailer focuses on the romance between Vera and Roland. It's easy to get swept up in it in just the short amount of footage, and as the music swells, you know there'll be heartbreak. Testament of Youth doesn't have a release date in the US yet, but you can watch the trailer now.
