25. Sean Bean
And now, for the character we’ve all been waiting for: Ned Stark.
Ned was the second major character death in Game of Thrones. Those of us who didn’t read the books never saw it coming. We all loved Ned. He was too good for this world, and he didn’t know how to play the Game. So, he died. His death sent all the events of the show spiraling into action, from the War of the Five Kings, to the Red Wedding, and everything after and in between. We miss you, Ned.
Since leaving Game of Thrones, Sean Bean has starred in the new series The Frankenstein Chronicles, and has voiced a character for the Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV film.
