Outside of Mamoa, which actor has had the best career so far from the GoT ?

I watched In the Land of Saints and Sinners last week and bizarrely enough I didn’t recognize Joffrey alongside Liam Neeson. For starters I thought he had quit acting, but I can’t believe I didn’t recognize that magnificently punchable face
I definitely thought Kit Harrington was going places, but so far everything I’ve seen has been mediocre B flicks. And I just try to brain bleach his loathsome character from Industry
The most noteworthy thing Dinklage has done is read that beautiful poem in front of the courthouse in NYC a couple of years ago. And everything I’ve seen Emilia Clarke in has been awful. I don’t even recognize anything from Sophie Turner’s IMDb
Am I forgetting anyone?

Pedro Pascal - was only in one season but is a superstar now.

Also Hannah Waddingham (Ted Lasso)

Good call. I completely forgot about Pedro

Almost certainly the right answer. At least for me as someone who doesn't consume a ton of TV or movies.
Dinklage has notoriety. But I'd say he's a known for Elf as he is for any other non-GoT work, and that movie came out 8 years before GoT.

Harrington hasn’t done much in movies but I think he’s been great on Industry on HBO.

Lena Headey (Cersei) has had a great career. She was pretty well established even before GOT

Nikolaj Coster-Waldau (Jaime Lannister) works all the time. I remember him back to Blackhawk Down.

As were Sean Bean and Jonathan Pryce.

Based purely on big roles or actually being great in those roles?
Because we have to include Sophie Turner if for no other reason than getting into two X-Men movies as well as the Lara Croft series.
That said... you have to presume Pedro Pascal is the hands-on winner. Dude's been in everything. Love or hate him, he's become huge.
Most of the actors were pretty well established, so do you include actors like Charles Vance, or only actors who made their first big splash with the show, like Emilia Clarke?

He’s had my personal favorite resumé since GoT. Not many misses. He picks some really solid rolls

I've seen Tywin Lannister in a lot of projects.

I haven’t seen any of these movies so I guess that’s why she never came to mind

Its Pedo Pascal unfortunately

Richard Madden has had a lot of work. I really liked him in Bastille Day with Idris Elba. He has a show currently on Amazon Prime.

Saw Jack Gleason (Joffrey) in a movie with Liam Neeson the other day called “In the Land of Saints and Sinners”. He was playing a low level hitman in Ireland, he was great.

He was also in house of Guinness and did really well imo
