Take a deep breath, Game of Thrones fans. Kit Harington isn’t cheating on his former on-screen romance and now-wife, Rose Leslie, but his character in Marvel Studios’ The Eternals is getting hot and heavy with another, confirming a key aspect of the storyline.

ScreenRant reports that Harington’s character Dane Whitman, also known as Black Knight, was photographed kissing Gemma Chan's Sersi during production. Fans and followers of the big MCU installation have speculated whether or not the romance between the two superheroes would make it from the comic books to the big screen, and this kiss seemingly answers that question.

As fans know, Sersi is the only one of her fellow Eternals—genetically enhanced immortals—who enjoys living among humans. This allows her to develop a relationship with Dane. What is unclear is if the film will turn their love into the next big MCU romance, or if they will be torn apart by circumstance.

Harington and Chan will be joined by a star-studded cast, including Angelina Jolie, Salma Hayek, Ma Dong-Seok, Kumail Nanjiani, and Harington’s former on-screen "brother," Richard Madden.

Let’s just hope that no matter what happens, Harington won’t be stuck dealing with another Mad Queen. Keep an eye out for The Eternals, set to hit the big screen on Nov. 4.
