Jon Snow or buzz cut bae?

Kit Harington’s latest haircut has Game of Thrones fans freaking out and salivating all at once. “Who are you, and what have you done with Jon Snow?” was the collective mentality of most all GoT fans this week when the actor was pictured Monday (June 15) with a noticeably different hairstyle. Harington — or King of the North if you’re naughty — stepped out in London, not with his trademark curls for which he’s been known, but a quarantine buzz cut. (Check it out here.)

Photos published by the Daily Mail showed the 33-year-old hunk — looking suave in a form-fitting black turtleneck, light blue skinny jeans (swoon), and grey Chelsea boots — minding his business while walking his dog and carrying home a bag of groceries, unbeknownst to the thirst tweets flooding Twitter over his new look.

“I’m ready to bend the knee for Kit Harrington,” one Twitter user wrote, as someone else chimed in, “i want— wait actually no.. i need kit harington to suffocate me with his thighs.”

Another excited user tweeted of the look: “Alright so Kit Harington with that buzzcut, beefy body and meaty bulge looks like a total daddy who would completely ravage you in bed…”

Other users mourned the actor’s luscious locks. “I open twitter and this is the first thing I see Flushed face I have mixed feelings I mean he's hot af but why did he cut his hair likeeee,” wrote one fan, as another grieved, “Oh my god kit harington 😭 RIP JON SNOW LUSCIOUS CURLS. EVERYBODY BE QUIET I AM MOURNING 😭😭😭”

Even though it’s been two years since Game of Thrones ended, Harington warned fans this ungodly day would come. Speaking to Entertainment Weekly in June 2018, he teased, “I’d like to step away and enjoy the obscurity, cut my hair, make myself less recognizable as the character.”
