Kit Harington said that giving up alcohol made something as everyday as going to sleep particularly difficult. 🌙
In an interview published in September 2026 on the Happy Sad Confused podcast, the actor explained that his mind stays very active at night and revealed what he found to help him fall asleep: ““When I stopped drinking, going to bed became especially difficult. So I started listening to ‘Harry Potter’ audiobooks””.
According to him, the audiobooks in the series became part of his nighttime routine, and he now listens to them every night. The coincidence is curious, because Harington will also join the Hogwarts universe, playing Gilderoy Lockhart in the second season of the HBO series.
