10 Movie Co-Stars Who Shared Iconic Roles

7. Aidan Gillen And Richard Madden - John Reid

The first of two pairs of Game of Thrones co-stars on this list, Aidan Gillen and Richard Madden, both played major roles in the iconic HBO fantasy series. Gillen made his mark as the villainous Littlefinger for the first seven seasons, and Madden brought to life King in the North Robb Stark for the first three.

Though the pair don't share any screen time in Game of Thrones, they do share the role of music manager John Reid. Reid managed both Queen and Elton John, and therefore featured in both of their recent biopics. In Bohemian Rhapsody, Gillen plays Reid in a supporting role, and in Rocketman, Madden takes on the role as the main antagonist.

Unfortunately for Littlefinger, managing Queen is the closest he ever came to royalty.
