Some more casting news coming in for Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures’ The Seventh Son. Variety reports that “Game of Thrones” star Kit Harington has found his next role before jumping back into production on the HBO series.

Harington is in final negotiations to join a cast that already includes Jeff Bridges, Ben Barnes, Julianne Moore and Alicia Vikander.

Formerly known as The Spook’s Apprentice, the tale is adapted from Joseph Delaney’s young adult series about a teen who’s the seventh son of a seventh son and learns about wizardry from a forbidding spook.

Harington will play the former apprentice of Bridges’ character. Sergei Bodrov is directing; Thunder Road’s Basil Iwanyk, Legendary’s Thomas Tull and Lionel Wigram are producing; and Jon Jashni and Alysia Cotter are exec producing.

Look for it in theatres February 15th, 2013.
