Pour one out for Game of Thrones, because winter has finally come for the most popular TV show in recent history. But before you start crying over the fate of your beloved characters, remember that for the show’s actors, there’s life after death. Here’s a look at what the stars behind these dead Game of Thrones characters look like today.
Ros went from being a Northern prostitute to Littlefinger’s trusted assistant at one of his King’s Landing brothels, but her increased station came with a price—Littlefinger discovered that she was spying on him for Varys, so he gave her to Joffrey. It all ended quite brutally for Ros, who was bound to Joffrey’s bed frame and killed with several crossbow bolts in season three.
Since her gruesome Thrones demise, actress Esmé Bianco has appeared in the TV movies A Christmas Mystery and Ominous, as well as the television series The Magicians. Her recent film projects include Hypnotized, about people trapped under hypnosis when their hypnotist falls into a coma, and the found-footage vampire thriller Living Among Us.
The “Red Viper” Oberyn Martell traveled to King’s Landing in hopes of finding answers regarding the death of his sister Elia. Oberyn got more than he bargained for when he volunteered to fight for Tyrion during a trial by combat against Gregor in season four; he got the answer he wanted, but Gregor smashed his face like a grape not long after.
Since Thrones, actor Pedro Pascal has starred in Graceland, Narcos, The Great Wall, and Kingsman: The Golden Circle. His star power is only continuing to rise as he prepares to take the title role in the Disney+ Star Wars series The Mandalorian and an as-yet unidentified part in Wonder Woman 1984.
