“ Slave Play ” writer Jeremy O. Harris feels confident that casting “ Game of Thrones ” star Kit Harington in the production’s West End run won’t be a “distraction.” Beyond Harington, the cast will include Fisayo Akinade (“The Crucible,” “Heartstopper”), Aaron Heffernan (“Brassic,” “Atlanta”), Olivia Washington (“I Am Virgo”), James Cusati-Moyer (“Six Degrees of Separation,” “Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt”), Chalia La Tour (“Elementary”), Annie McNamara (“Orange is the New Black”) and Irene Sofia Lucio (“The Americans”).
