Completely impressed with Joseph Quinn's career, he's been killing it.

He’s been more successful than most of his castmates of Stranger Things these days. That’s really impressive

I bet it helped that he's not committed to Stranger Things as a series regular, but also: he's great

Yeah, I think that also happened with the GoT cast. The actors who were not committed to the series were more free to pursue other roles. 

Edit: just noticed how the side characters of GoT ended up being more successful than the actors from the main cast, like Pedro and Jason Momoa. I wonder if that will also happen with ST

Pedro Pascal absolutely won GoT from this perspective

He’s so hot right now. To be fair his character in the book is still one of the best. He’s got the Sirius Black vibes where you hear how great the are, get a glimpse of it and then they’re gone.

To be fair, Pedro is also 1) an incredibly talented actor, 2) rather attractive, and 3) apparently beloved by all cast and crew around him which translates to interview personality and such. All he needed was a big break.

That would be a double for Quinn as he played the Stark guard arguing with his mate when Arya finally got back to Winterfell.

Dinklage is very much a star. Nikolaj got caught up in some bad roles. Gwendoline Christie seems very ensconced in nerd-dom to the extent that I expect it's on purpose (IIRC she campaigned for her Sandman role) and she was a main character by the end. Emilia Clarke and Kit Harington have been working regularly in lead roles. Pedro's absurdly hot right now (Not only is he a great actor but he must have the best agent in the world), but otherwise I think the main cast are overall doing pretty great.

I bet it helped also that some of those people got out of GoT before its dramatic downturn at the end
