13 Game Of Thrones Actors You Didn't Realise Were In Popular Video Games

2. Sean Bean (Eddard Stark) - The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion (Martin Septim)

Thanks to Bethesda highlighting a number of key actors they recruited to bring 2006's Oblivion to life, you might be drawn to the mighty Patrick Stewart topping the credits as where that star power was expended. However, Sean Bean - forever the forgotten actor who everyone adores once he's been pointed out - plays Martin Septim, the brother of Stewart's character.

The beg question though, is "Does he die in this one?"

Well, Bethesda really dragged out Martin's role in the game, eventually turning him into a great big dragon statue at the end, letting the fans decide whether he's still alive in there or not.

It all sounds like wishful thinking to me. I mean, besides Kirby, who else can turn into straight stone and emerge unscathed?

Not even switching mediums can stop the Sean Bean death curse.
