It would appear that Game of Thrones star Kit Harington must appear in every movie at the moment! With Testament of Youth in the cinemas as I type, Seventh Son sitting in the wings and now Spooks: The Greater Good, the man has never been busier.
The movie which is Produced by Pinewood Pictures spins off from the hit BBC TV show which ran for 10 seasons from 2002-2011 and had a massive fan-base. Harington is joined by a cast which includes Peter Firth, Jennifer Ehle (Pride and Prejudice, Zero Dark thirty), David Harewood (Homeland) and Tim McInnery (Notting Hill, Blackadder).
It’s set for release May 8th and you can see the trailer, poster and images below.
When charismatic terrorist Adam Qasim (Elyes Gabel) escapes from MI5 custody during a high profile handover, the legendary Harry Pearce (Peter Firth), Head of Counter-terrorism, is blamed. Disgraced and forced to resign, no-one’s surprised when Harry disappears one night off a bridge into the Thames…
With MI5 on its knees in the wake of the Qasim debacle and facing controversial reform, former agent Will Holloway (Kit Harington) is brought back from Moscow to uncover the truth they feared – Harry’s still alive. He’s gone rogue, and needs Will’s help.
As Qasim prepares his devastating attack on the heart of MI5 in London, Will must decide whether to turn Harry in – or risk everything by trusting the damaged, dangerous master spy who has already betrayed him once before…
Bonus Kit Harrington!
