Today is the twenty-sixth birthday of Kit Harington, better known as (Lord) Jon Snow, on TV's Game of Thrones.
Prior to Game of Thrones, Kit was in absolutely nothing (at least according to his IMDb page). The only other thing he's been in, so far, is Silent Hill: Revelation 3D, which he appeared in along-side his GoT on-screen father, Sean Bean. Game of Thrones, however, is not his only book-to-movie adaptation; in the next couple of years he's set to appear in The Seventh Son, based on the young adult novel The Spook's Apprentice by Joseph Delaney, and after that he is to voice the villain in How to Train Your Dragon 2, which is loosely based on the books by Cressida Cowell. He has other stuff coming out too, but most importantly is the third season of Game of Thrones (as well as any future seasons, assuming he survives the third, which is an assumption you should never make with this series - the author of the books upon which the show is based, George R.R. Martin, loves killing people).
Point being, happy birthday Kit, and let's hope you survive long enough to do many seasons of GoT.
