10 Game Of Thrones Scene Stealers

10. Will (Bronson Webb)

Will appears in the opening moments of the show's very first episode. He is the youngest of the three Night's Watch brothers who venture out beyond the Wall in search of a band of wildlings. Through him, we experience the sheer terror of the White Walkers. By the time the now-iconic title sequence begins, we're quite certain that Will is doomed. And yet he lives...only to be executed for desertion by the beloved Ned Stark (played to perfection by Sean Bean).

Bronson Webb imbues Will with sadness. Webb appeared as a similarly ill-fated member of Russell Crowe's merry men in 2010's Robin Hood. There is something about his face that communicates desperation and bad fortune. Will is just a kid who joined something larger than himself and is losing his head for taking his oath seriously. Perhaps things in Westeros would have been less dire if everyone had just listened to Will.
