Forgot he was in Hacksaw Ridge but never saw the others.

Seems like Sophie Turner is the Stark child who has the best chance of actually turning GoT into a long-term acting career.

Wut? Sophie Turner was one of the worst actors on the show. And Richard Madden will easily have the best acting career out of the Stark children. He won a Golden Globe last year, starred in Rocketman that is getting Oscar buzz and just landed a leading role in an upcoming Marvel movie. Madden's probably going to have the best career out of anybody that's appeared on the show.

I'm going to be completely honest and say that I 100% forgot about him since he only appeared in ~25% of the entire series.

I was focusing on the Stark children who were in the entire show.

I do agree it was but he was playing a stupider version of Jon Snow in that.

Jon Snow will always be one of my favorite television characters and Kit did a good job, but from all other impressions he seems like kinda an arse.

Sophie is pretty annoying and loud mouthed. She seems like she’s be fun to party with but that’s the end of it.

Maisie seems like an odd duck but I hope that New Mutants goes well for her.

Richard is having a solid career. I thought Kit would have had more roles, but he has seemed pretty exhausted lately.

Sophie isn’t a good actress, but she’s taking full advantage of GoT and using it to her benefit for her career.

He’s the voice of Eret in the How to Train Your Dragon series.

He’s also done some theater and has been in the middle of a show’s run after filming for GoT. I could see him sticking to that and voice acting for awhile.

Probably not too far. He will convert the GOT role into a lead role in some low budget romantic comedy and the likely poor reviews will then push him to the supporting actor roles or some additional period specific roles as there appears to be more interest in period pieces on the BBC than there is in major motion pictures.

Maybe the Next Doctor Who..Something light and campy to separate him from the brooding warrior.

Another thought would be to get hooked into the MCU as a character.

If he holds out for big paydays, he will get a few but if the movies suck he's done.

Turner's acting abilities don't really matter. In real life, she has kind of a bubbly personality and has a unique, attractive look... She'll get roles, lots of them if they still made rom coms, but she'll probably hold onto that Jean Grey spot when MCU absorbs x-men because she is somehow seen now as a "strong female" actress.

She is tall, that helps, but she is not a great actress. Plus she's only like 20 or so.

Basically everyone in the GoT cast besides the older folks, Heady, Dance, Dinklage, Bean, etc were pretty average actors.

I could see Rory McCann (the Hound) getting lots of roles in The Rock and Fast and Furious or Mad Max type movies. He's a great heavy who can actually act.

And didn't Richard Madden get announced like last year as the new Bond.

Sean Bean and Peter Dinklage are by no means "average" actors. They are exceptional actors.

Charles Dance is phenomenal actor as well. Godzilla King of Monsters is going to be chock full of great moments but the best one I’ve seen is Charles Dance in his cool calm badass tone saying Long Live the King.
