In Game Of Thrones

Stroma played Dickon Tarly, the younger brother of Sam, in Season 6's Blood of my Blood. He's the heir to Horn Hill, an arrogant, physically strong man who is everything (in his father's eyes) that Sam isn't. While Dickon will return in Season 7, Stroma has been replaced by Tom Hopper due to scheduling conflicts.

In Harry Potter

He was Cormac McLaggen, who is perhaps the douchiest person we've ever seen in Gryffindor. A member of the Slug Club, he takes Hermione to the Christmas party, and competes with Ron to be Quidditch keeper.

What Else

Stroma had a lead role on Time After Time (the show that meant he couldn't do Thrones), which was cancelled after just a few episodes. He's also had roles in Pitch Perfect and The Inbetweeners 2.
