Despite being a cultural touchstone for the past decade, surprisingly Game of Thrones was almost completely snubbed – earning just one acting nod for the Jon Snow ‘King in the North’ Kit Harington and no nominations for his co-star Daenerys Targaryen ‘Mother of Dragons’ Emilia Clarke.
In the Golden Globes 2020 nominations, Kit Harington has been nominated for Best Performance by an Actor in a Television Series, Drama, and will face off against Brian Cox for “Succession,” Rami Malek for “Mr. Robot,” Tobias Menzies for “The Crown” and Billy Porter for “Pose.”
Actor Kit Harington has branded himself as the “Loner Throner” after being the only Game of Thrones star to get a Golden Globes 2020 nomination.
David Benioff and Dan Weiss brought alive the world of Game of Thrones on the small screen in 2011. On the surface, the show, based on George RR Martin’s novels, comes across as a thrilling quest to the coveted Iron Throne. But it also stands for complicated political gambits, scheming and the backstabbing nature of people and finding love in troubled times.
