A new spin-off series of Game of Thrones is coming!

Emma D’Arcy as Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen and Matt Smith as Prince Daemon Targaryen in The House of the Dragon, prequel to the Game of Thrones on HBO.

On August 21, HBO will release the highly anticipated House of the Dragon, a 10-episode show and prequel to the original mega-hit. The plot is based on George R.R. Martin’s book Fire & Blood (2018), taking audiences back 200 years to the reign of House Targaryen.

It will feature new cast members, including Crazy Rich Asians’ Sonoya Mizuno and Olivia Cooke, with veteran British actor Matt Smith from Doctor Who as the lead character of warrior and dragon rider Daemon Targaryen.

But as we ramp up for GoT’s first spin-off (many more are currently in development), let’s not forget the OG cast that took the world by storm from its first episode back in 2011. One of the world’s most popular TV series to ever run helped skyrocket many of its cast members into the limelight, after all.

But who’s the richest to come out of the eight-season franchise that ended in 2019, based on data from Celebrity Net Worth?
