Game of Thrones actor, Kit Harington, earns N928m per episode

According to Punch, Kit Harington who stars in hit series, Game of Thrones as Jon Snow, reportedly earns £2 million (N928m) per episode of the hit HBO fantasy drama television series created by David Benioff and D . B. Weiss.

Harington is, however, not the only person making that amount; other stars — Emilia Clarke (Daenerys), Lena Headey (Cersei Lannister), Peter Dinklage (Tyrion Lannister) and Danish co -star Nikolaj Coster- Waldau (Jaime Lanister) also earn £2m in each episode of the movie.

The big cash had come from bonus clauses, which saw the stars earning percentages of the syndication payments that come from the record-breaking show being aired in more than 170 countries. The stars are also said to be benefitting from payments from re-runs, with shows earning audiences of up to 23 million people during the sixth season.

Meanwhile, Harington is reportedly worth $12m (N4.3bn).
