How many of these actors will be typecast?


We all saw in LotR trilogy that many of the actors from that series never really worked again in anything high profile. There were exceptions such as Viggo Mortenson and Ian Mckellan.


I see only a few actors having their career furthered by the GoT series.

That's why Kit Harington and Emilia Clarke have gone for action and romance films over the last 3 or so years, so they can show their ranges. Richard Madden was typecast when he first left the show, but I think he's currently on a police show for BBC. Natalie Dormer was in the Hunger Games with Gwendolyn Christie, who was also in the last 2 Star Wars movies. Iwan Rheon was on one of those Marvel TV shows, but it got canceled before the season finished airing. The guy who plays Edmure Tully gets typecast in period dramas. The older actors, almost all are famous in British film, if not internationally.

Kit Harrington appeared in a few movies like Pompeii, which haven't done well at the box office.

Probably none of them. Most of them are brits and they get steady work within their own little industry.

Watch a few UK TV series and you're bound to see at least one or two GoT cast members on each show.
