Long before television found him, Conleth Hill was one of Northern Ireland's most decorated stage actors, an Olivier winner with Tony nominations for 'Stones in His Pockets'. Born in Ballycastle, County Antrim, in 1964, he reached global audiences as Lord Varys, the enigmatic, soft-footed spymaster of 'Game of Thrones' (2011-2019), whose whispered scenes with Littlefinger were miniature masterclasses. He also played hotelier Carlos in 'Derry Girls' (2018), appeared in Woody Allen's 'Whatever Works' (2009) and 'Official Secrets' (2019), and joined '3 Body Problem' (2024). Silken intelligence, deployed quietly, is his hallmark.
