The 38-year-old actor had to stand on an “apple box” to give his gothic horror movie co-star – who plays Anne, the love interest of his alter ego Jago – a kiss because she is taller than him.<\/p>\n
And shooting the scene felt “a bit weird” for the duo because they played siblings, Jon Snow and Sansa Stark, in the HBO drama, Game of Thrones.<\/p>\n
Kit told E! News: “It was slightly embarrassing, having to get on an apple box to kiss her because she’s about a foot taller than me. <\/p>\n
“But other than that, my dignity was pretty intact.”<\/p>\n
\nThe star felt uneasy when he discovered that he and Sophie’s characters are lovers in The Dreadful.<\/p>\n
\nKit recalled: “She was one that sent that movie to me and somehow didn’t see what I saw in it. <\/p>\n
\n“I was like, ‘These guys, these are lovers, right?’ I felt very odd about that.” <\/p>\n
\nNonetheless, he loved acting alongside Sophie, 29, again.<\/p>\n
\nKit said: “It was a good chance to be with her again and work together. <\/p>\n
\n“What was lovely is that we got on set together and our friendship completely ignited again. It felt like being with family. It really did.”<\/p>\n
\nThe Dreadful is “set in the 15th century during the Wars of the Roses” and sees “Anne and her mother-in-law Morwen exist on the outskirts of society when someone from their past re-enters their life”.<\/p>\n
\nIt also stars Marcia Gay Harden (Morwen), Laurence O’Fuarain (Seamus), and Jonathan Howard (Brother Penros).<\/p>\n
\nElsewhere, Kit enjoyed working with 54-year-old actor Mark Wahlberg in the action-comedy film The Family Plan 2.<\/p>\n
\nKit – who plays Aidan in the Apple TV+ Christmas movie – told E! News: “It was gorgeous. I’ve seen his career and been like, ‘That guy’s extraordinary.’ How he maintained his career over the years, how he maintained himself and his professionalism – he’s a real inspiration.”<\/p>\n
\nHowever, Kit felt nervous being on set with Mark – who plays car salesman and ex-covert assassin Dan Morgan.<\/p>\n
\nKit recalled: “I was quite daunted working on set with him. The first day, we had to do a fight scene, and for me, that was a daunting thing. But he couldn’t have been more welcoming. He’s such a lovely, lovely man.”<\/p>\n
\nAnd Mark was thrilled to work with Kit in The Family Plan 2.<\/p>\n
\nMark said: “He’s amazing, wonderful.”<\/p>\n
\nThe Family Plan 2 – which sees Dan and his family go to Europe for Christmas, but his past comes to haunt them – is released on November 21.<\/p>\n
