Game of Thrones' Shows ❌No Gender Pay💰 Gap

The Iron Bank is equally generous to kings and queens. Game of Thrones principal cast members Kit Harington (Jon Snow) and Lena Headey (Cersei Lannister) are making exactly the same per-episode salaries and bonuses, and have been since at least the beginning of this season, according to leaked documents sent to Mashable that purport to be the actors' contracts covering Seasons 7 and 8.

Harington and Headey are the only principal actors whose contracts appear to be in the document dump from Friday, the sixth wave of files the HBO hackers have released since late July.

Their contracts contain practically identical language — including a clause stating that no cast member can be paid more.

The contracts contain specific per-episode salary figures, signing bonuses, contract-completion bonuses and bonuses for awards nominations and wins — all identical — but Mashable has chosen not to reveal those details.

It's a fairly common practice in successful television ensembles to keep everyone at the same level, though there's no telling who among the other cast is considered "principal."
