Arguably the most tragic character in Telltale's Game of Thrones is Ethan Forrester. The third son of House Forrester, Ethan was forced to undertake the role of the House's lord at a young age as a result of his father's death, his oldest brother Rodrik's supposed death, and his older brother Asher's absenteeism. Before long, he got a knife in his throat at the hands of Ramsay Snow for his troubles.

The character's untimely death aside, when you consider his young appearance, his narrow facial structure, and his taste in hair styles, it seems as though the role of Ethan was practically tailor made for actor Asa Butterfield.

Hailing from Islington, Butterfield is known for his roles in the adaptation of Ender's Game and the critically acclaimed animated film, Hugo. (In addition to being up for the role of Spider-Man at one point.) Therefore, not only is Butterfield a good actor, but he clearly has a knack for portraying a young man who's a bit in over his head, such as Ethan Forrester.

So, not only does he look a great deal like the character, but he also easily has the acting chops to effectively play him on-screen.
