16. Alice Hewkin

Number of episodes: 1

Character name: Wight

Alice Hewkin has gone on to some bigger roles since appearing on Game of Thrones. Considering how small her part was, that’s not surprising. You’ve probably forgotten who she played, or more likely never realized she was there in the first place.

Hewkin appeared in the season 4 finale, “The Children.” The episode sees Bran, Meera, Jojen and Hodor finally reach their destination beyond the Wall only to get attacked by a band of wights. Hewkin plays one of the Children of the Forest, the sprite-like creatures who originally occupied Westeros before men came along. She’s covered in makeup, has no lines, and is never seen again, so you’d be forgiven for forgetting her.

Since Game of Thrones, Hewkin has gone on to land numerous other guest star roles, including in Sex Education and Emily in Paris. Her biggest role to date is Miju Lee in The Athena.

Look out for more from this young actress, but don’t expect any more creepy children roles for her now that she’s all grown up.
