The Richest 'Game of Thrones' Stars Ranked (& the Top Earner is Worth Nearly $100 Million More Than Who Comes in Second Place!)

Game of Thrones is the sort of industry dominating, pop culture titan that comes around every so often and totally changes the game. And while the characters fought for the Iron Throne, the show made its stars wealthy in real life.

The HBO show brought the world of Westeros to life straight from the pages of George R.R. Martin‘s A Song of Ice and Fire novels and became a breakaway hit that fans are still talking about four years after the grand finale.

It’s such a beloved franchise that it expanded with the release of a new spinoff series House of the Dragon, which started in 2022 and was almost instantly renewed for a second season.

The original cast is made up of an incredible group of talented actors. Some of them, especially the youngest stars, came to fame with Game of Thrones and have gone on to find success elsewhere. Take Sophie Turner, for example, who brought Sansa Stark to life and went on to join the X-Men franchise, portraying one of the universe’s most powerful heroes.

Others enjoyed successful careers before joining the series and continue to star in major projects across the globe in 2023.

Who has amassed the largest approximate net worth over the years? We did some digging and put together a ranking from lowest to highest. With a worth of approximately $120 million, the top earner has the competition beat by a landslide.

Rami Malek as Freddie Mercury in 'Bohemian Rhapsody' - Watch the Trailer!

Rami Malek stars as Freddie Mercury in the new trailer for the biopic, Bohemian Rhapsody.

Bohemian Rhapsody is a foot-stomping celebration of Queen, their music and their extraordinary lead singer Freddie Mercury. Freddie defied stereotypes and shattered convention to become one of the most beloved entertainers on the planet. The film traces the meteoric rise of the band through their iconic songs and revolutionary sound. They reach unparalleled success, but in an unexpected turn Freddie, surrounded by darker influences, shuns Queen in pursuit of his solo career. Having suffered greatly without the collaboration of Queen, Freddie manages to reunite with his bandmates just in time for Live Aid. While bravely facing a recent AIDS diagnosis, Freddie leads the band in one of the greatest performances in the history of rock music. Queen cements a legacy that continues to inspire outsiders, dreamers and music lovers to this day.

The cast also includes Lucy Boynton, Gwilym Lee, Ben Hardy, Joseph Mazzello, Aidan Gillen, Tom Hollander, and Mike Myers.
