Lena Headey and Emilia Clarke are the second pair of Game of Thrones co-stars to make it onto this list. Both actresses played a leading role on all eight seasons of Thrones, with Headey starring as Cersei Lannister and Clarke as Daenerys Targaryen.

Before playing Cersei, Headey played Sarah Connor from the Terminator films in a TV spinoff called Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles. Years later, Clarke took on the role for the 2015 sequel Terminator: Genesis after having worked with Headey for five seasons.

In hindsight "Sarah Connor will take the Iron Throne" isn't that bad of a Game of Thrones prediction.
