Game of Thrones actor cast as Hellfire Club Leader in a new Stranger Things Season 4 image
Game of Thrones stars are all over the place these days, and we’re sure that the fans are going to love this new development that we have today. Actor Joseph Quinn, who played one of the Winterfell guards, Koner, who laughed in disbelief at Arya Stark (Maisie Williams) when she arrived to reunite with her sister Sansa in the final season, has been cast as the leader of the Hellfire Club in the highly awaited season 4 of Stranger Things. His character was recently teased in a new picture exclusively published by Entertainment Weekly.
Joseph Quinn plays Eddie Munson, a metalhead with a fabulous mullet. He is also the leader of the Hellfire Club which is actually Hawkins High’s diehard Dungeons & Dragons crew which includes Mike Wheeler (Finn Wolfhard) and Dustin Henderson (Gaten Matarazzo). “I don’t think it’s a part-time gig,” Quinn talked about Eddie. “It’s a real lifestyle.”
Quinn also recalled his Game of Thrones days. He said, “It was such good fun. I was a big fan of the show. It was fun to have a sword and be in Winterfell. I remember thinking that was quite cool.”
Quinn is not the only Game of Thrones actor to have joined the show. Tom Wlaschiha, who played one of the most mysterious characters from Game of Thrones, Jaqen H’ghar, is playing a badass-looking Russian officer of some sort.
Volume I of Stranger Things season 4 will premiere this May 27 with Volume II dropping July 1 on Netflix. Are you excited about the upcoming season of Stranger Things? Talk to us in the comments below!
