If Game of Thrones lives to see Season 7, some of the show's cast is poised to see some pretty hefty pay raises.
HBO has reportedly locked the series' primary cast for the as-of-now unofficial Season 7 after renegotiating the contracts that were set to expire after Season 6, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

As part of the new deals, Emilia Clarke, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Peter Dinklage, Kit Harington, and Lena Headey will reportedly receive raises for the already ordered Seasons 5 and 6, as well as Season 7 should it be ordered. (Or more likely, "when it is ordered," right?)
The bumps, THR reported, "will make the cast members among the highest paid on cable TV."
As for Natalie Dormer, Sophie Turner, Maisie Williams and other cast members, they will also receive raises, but not quite as high as those of their higher-billed cast members, according to the entertainment-news site.
Going into Season 5, GoT remains HBO's most-watched series ever, even topping The Sopranos. The show finished off last season with strong-as-ever ratings, averaging a whopping 18.6 million viewers across all platforms.
Season 5 does not yet have an official premiere date.
