Game of Thrones is a colossal hit for HBO, and the actors’ salaries reflect that.
Stars like Kit Harington (who plays Jon Snow) and Lena Headey (Cersei Lannister) got big raises in 2017 ahead of the show’s final season, which premiered on Sunday. They now make $US500,000 an episode.
Before that, their latest raise came in 2014, when Harington, Headey, Peter Dinklage (Tyrion Lannister), Emilia Clarke (Daenerys Targaryen), and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau (Jaime Lannister) each made $US300,000 an episode, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
