Jonah Hill won’t watch Game of Thrones because ‘it didn’t happen’

There's a lot to be said for suspending your cynicism in order to properly immerse yourself in a fantasy TV series, but it sounds like Jonah Hill won't be trying it any time soon.

With Game of Thrones, Westworld and Stranger Things dominating the ratings this year, there's no doubt that fantasy and sci-fi is where the money is right now, but Jonah Hill isn't really buying it.

During a recent interview, the Wolf of Wall Street actor admitted that when it comes to film and television, he needs to know that the storyline had a chance of actually happening for him to commit to it.

Acknowledging that he's drawn to roles in movies based on true stories, he said: "I think life is so interesting on its own that, you know, I'm not against other kinds of stories."

"I don't really watch – like, my friends kind of make fun of me – I don't really watch sci-fi or anything like that. I've never seen Game of Thrones."

Aware he may have ruffled a few million feathers with that admission, Jonah added: "I'm sure it's amazing, but I don't really watch things that couldn't or didn't happen, you know?"

"Humanity is probably the most interesting thing. How people treat each other and how people feel, and that's just for me."

"Like, whether it's good or bad, I'm probably a pretty over-sensitive person," he continued. "And I think I just find it entertaining and interesting to explore why people feel and do certain things."

While die-hard Game of Thrones fans in SHEmazing! HQ are reeling right now, we totally see where he's coming from.
