Game of Thronesissa nähtiin vuosien varrella monia mieleenpainuvia roolisuorituksia, jotka olivat mukana vain yhden kauden ajan. Mieleen tulee esimerkiksi Oberyn Martell, jota esitti Pedro Pascal.
Vanity Fairin haastattelussa Pascal pitääkin Game of Thronesia uransa tärkeimpänä roolina. Se kun sai hänen uransa nousuun, joka jatkuu edelleen.
"The role that changed my life was in Game of Thrones. I will always credit its creators for taking a chance on someone who had nothing but unknown theater credits and episodic television on their résumé. I still awe at the opportunity that was handed to me by David Benioff, Dan Weiss, and Carolyn Strauss. Without Thrones, I would not have had Narcos, The Mandalorian, or The Last of Us."
