House Of The Dragon has all of us Game of Thrones fans in a chokehold and with a second season on the horizon, we truly are in our element. With a whopping budget of over $20 million per episode, House of the Dragon is the said to be the fifth most expensive TV production ever made. Set 200 years before the events of Game Of Thrones, we watch a whole new cast portray the nail biting history of House Targaryen. And with such huge budget comes huge paydays, right? From one to 12 million, here’s a look at the House of the Dragon net worths, ranked.

10. Emma D’Arcy (Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen) – $500,000

 

Ancestor of Daenerys, Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen was played by Emma D’Arcy in House of the Dragon. Not only is the role new to Emma, but acting in general, with the series being her breakthrough into the acting industry.

That doesn’t mean she hasn’t started raking in the cash, already amassing a net worth of $500,000 since taking on the role, as well as another big projects such as Amazon Prime Video series Truth Seekers, and the 2019 BBC Three drama, Wanderlust.

9. Fabien Frankel (Ser Criston Cole) – $1 million

 

Rising star, Fabien Frankel, is estimated to be a millionaire with a net worth of, you guessed it – $1 million.

The English actor and model landed the role of Ser Criston Cole, the Kings guard knight and skilled swordsman of Princess Rhaenyra.

7.Olivia Cooke (Lady Alicent Hightower) – $2 million

 

Olivia Cooke is likely recognised for a number of roles, not just for her performance as daughter of Ser Otto Hightower, Lady Alicent Hightower, in House of the Dragon. She first became recognised after her role as Emma Decody in the A&E series Bates Motel, before blowing up and landing a number of roles in big productions.

You might remember her from Ouija, Me And Earl And The Dying Girl, Sound Of Metal, and Ready Player One, all of which have contributed to her healthy net worth of $2 million.

6. Sonoya Mizuno (Mysaria) – $2.5 million

 

Not only is Sonoya a talented actress, but she is also a model and ballet dancer and featured in many minor roles before House of the Dragon. Her career has seen her consistently pick up acting roles in both film and TV projects, including Ex Machina, La La Land, Beauty And The Beast, and Crazy Rich Asians.

To top that off, she will no doubt have been paid handsomely for her stellar performances as both a model and dancer for brands and music videos.

Ranking at the sixth highest of the House of the Dragon net worths, she’s made a name for herself as a multitalented performer, having also modelled for Profile Models in London, as well as for Chanel, Alexander McQueen, Saint Laurent, and Louis Vuitton.

5. Eve Best (Princess Rhaenys Targaryen) – $3 million


Eve is an extremely talented actress and director and has been awarded with both an Olivier Award and two Tony Award nominations. She gained widespread recognition from her first major role in critically acclaimed series Nurse Jackie, going on to work on equally impressive projects such as The King’s Speech, The Inspector Lynley Mysteries, and Waking the Dead.

In House of the Dragon, Eve plays Princess Rhaenys Targaryen, the wife of Lord Corlys and the cousin of King Viserys I Targaryen – a role which has helped contribute to her healthy net worth of an estimated $3 million.

4. Paddy Considine (King Viserys I Targaryen) – $4 million

 

One of the biggest House of the Dragon net worths belongs to Paddy Considine, who played King Viserys I Targaryen. Paddy made a name for himself in numerous supporting roles, including in big name films such as Dead Man’s Shoes and Edgar Wright’s The World’s End.

Despite having just shy of 290,000 Instagram followers, he’s done very well for himself.  Working as an actor, director and screen writer has helped nurture his net worth to a striking $4 million, with Paddy even making appearances in Peaky Blinders, The Outsider, and Third Day. No wonder he’s rolling in it.

3. Graham McTavish (Ser Harrold Westerling) – $5 million

 

Known far and wide for his role as Dwalin in The Hobbit film trilogy, Graham McTavish is making a new name for himself as Ser Harrold Westerling in House of the Dragon. After his first major role in episode two of Walt Disney’s miniseries Return to Treasure Island in 1986, the actor went on to work in not only TV, but also animations, films, and video games, contributing to him being so widely known in the industry.

Graham has even dabbled in writing in the past, publishing a book alongside fellow Outlander actor Sam Heughan in 2020 named Clanlands: Whisky, Warfare, And A Scottish Adventure Like No Other.

Thanks to his talent as an actor, and his book reaching the number one spot on the New York Times’ Best Seller List for hardcover nonfiction, Graham currently boasts an estimated net worth of $5 million.

2. Matt Smith (Prince Daemon Targaryen) – $9 million

At number two in the House of the Dragon net worth ranking, Matt Smith somehow missed the top spot but is still estimated to be worth an insane $9 million. He’s of course known most famously from Doctor Who, but also worked on The Crown and Terminator Genisys. His role as the Eleventh Doctor allegedly paid him a healthy $1 million for the whole project, so it’s nice to see him in a new role as Prince Daemon Targaryen, the Rogue Prince dragon rider and younger brother of King Viserys Targaryen.

1. Rhys Ifans (Ser Otto Hightower) – $12.5 million

His performances in Notting Hill, The Amazing Spider-Man, and Not Only But Always have seen him rack up considerably large pay cheques, and set to star in season two of House of the Dragon, it looks like his wallet is set to get even fatter.
