Bonus
Even though Sean Bean’s character Ned Stark was killed in the very first season of Game of Thrones, he is one of the richest actors on the show. Today, Sean Bean has a net worth of $20 million. We don’t know how much money he received for the season, but the thing is the actor was quite popular before the show even started. For example, he had a part in The Lord of the Rings. Also, the role of Ned Stark made him even more popular and Sean Bean got many other offers afterward. After Game of Thrones, he did big projects like Medici: Masters of Florence and The Oath.
By the way, the show earned a lot of money not only for the actors, but also for everyone who worked on it. For example, the HBO channel earned $8 billion and the book author George Martin earned about $65 million. Northern Ireland, where the show was partially filmed, received more than €300 million in investments.
