When the show finishes, or if his character is killed off before then, the 21-year-old says he is planning a career change. Following a trip to Haiti with aid agency Goal, he said that he would like to devote time to humanitarian works.

He said of his decision.

"[Acting} was always a recreation beforehand, but when I started doing Game Of Thrones perhaps the reality was made too real for me... The lifestyle that comes with being an actor in a successful TV show is not something I gravitate towards."

So fans might be feeling a bit like this right now.
