Game of Thrones is easily one of the most successful shows of all time. Anyone who has social media understands the absurd number of memes, spoilers, and more that come along with every Sunday’s new episode. Some of the actors and actresses who portray the Game of Thrones characters are more well-known than others — but which star has the highest net worth?
Maisie Williams: $6 million
After last week’s Battle of Winterfell, people are definitely rooting for Arya Stark, who is portrayed by Maisie Williams. Williams is making a reported $175,000 per episode for this final season, which may sound like a lot, but it actually isn’t even close to some of the other salaries. Either way, she’s made millions from Game of Thrones and is worth a reported $6 million today.
Sophie Turner: $6 million
Sophie Turner shot to fame with her role on the show; according to Refinery29, Turner’s character, Sansa Stark, was her first professional acting job. Clearly, things worked out. Turner reportedly makes $175,000 per episode, and she’s worth an estimated $6 million today. She’s also engaged to Joe Jonas, and the two seem to have a close, exciting relationship that fans love to watch.

Lena Headey: $9 million
Lena Headey is best known as Cersei Lannister on the show. She’s a British actress who already had an established acting career before landing her role on the HBO show. Refinery29 reports that she is being paid $500,000 per episode, but other outlets suggest the number is closer to $1 million. Today, she’s worth an estimated $9 million, and much of that is thanks to Game of Thrones.
Kit Harington: $12 million
It’s hard to forget Jon Snow, played by Kit Harington. Snow is one of the show’s most important characters, and Harington’s acting techniques made him perfect for the role. Harington has been in several films, but Game of Thrones was his first major small-screen role. Evidently, he’s done a great job, considering he makes a reported $500,000 per episode. Today, he’s worth an estimated $12 million.
Emilia Clarke: $13 million
Emilia Clarke is another actress making a reported $500,000 per episode, up from $300,000 in previous seasons. She plays Daenerys Targaryen, a critical character on the show, which explains her massive salary. Today, she’s the wealthiest female of any Game of Thrones cast member with a net worth around $13 million.
Peter Dinklage: $15 million
Peter Dinklage may be best known as Tyrion Lannister, but this isn’t his first acting gig. You might remember Dinklage as famed children’s author Miles Finch in Elf, otherwise known as the “south pole elf.” He also had important roles in X-Men and The Chronicles of Narnia. His acting resume has earned him a net worth of about $15 million, though Tyrion Lannister might be his best-known role of all time.
Nikolaj Coster-Waldeau: $16 million
Nikolaj Coster-Waldeau is the wealthiest Game of Thrones actor, and he’s known for his role as Jaime Lannister. Coster-Waldeau has a long list of films under his belt, including Black Hawk Down and The Other Woman. He’s likely made the majority of his money from the HBO show though, considering he receives an estimated $500,000 per episode. Today, he’s worth around $16 million.
