Best Game of Thrones cameos ft. Aaron Rodgers

Asides from Aaron Rodgers, some celebrities have appeared on the hit TV show Game of Thrones, and here's our pick of the bunch.

#1. Rob McElhenney and Martin Starr (Season 8, Episode 1)

The two comedians cameoed as sailors on Euron Greyjoy’s ship who met a swift end as Theon Greyjoy and his men boarded the vessel to rescue his sister Yara. Showrunners Benioff and D.B. Weiss had written an episode of "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" years ago and had their cameos as lifeguards in "The Gang Goes to a Water Park" in 2017.

#2. Ed Sheeran (Season 7, Episode 1)

In a cameo that raised some eyebrows, Shape of You crooner Ed Sheeran appeared in episode one of the seventh season of GoT.

In this episode, Arya Stark stumbles upon a group of friendly Lannister soldiers after poisoning all the men in House Frey and hears the golden voice of the famous redhead singer. She shares some food and wine, reminisces about the home with the squad, then sets off, saying she's "going to kill the Queen."

The cameo wasn't so blink-and-you-miss-it as Sheeran was right there in viewers' faces for four minutes.

#3. Aaron Rodgers (Season 8, Episode 5)

The NFL icon made a blink-and-you'll-miss-it appearance as a King's Landing soldier fighting for Cersei. He even appeared in a promo for the hit series in the weeks leading up to his appearance.
