"Game of Thrones" may have launched the careers of several A-list actors, but HBO's acclaimed fantasy series also featured plenty of well-known celebrities in smaller roles. Over the course of the show's eight seasons, a whole host of musicians, actors, and athletes all made their way to Westeros.
Some of these stars appeared in very sneaky minor cameos; others had fairly significant roles, even if fans may not have recognized them at the time. In addition to these five names, this list will also shout out a few of the other notable faces that showrunners David Benioff and Dan Weiss enlisted for the hit series. (Notably, Benioff and Weiss themselves made a cameo appearance as a pair of wildlings in the fourth episode of the final season.)

The Academy Award Winner Who Almost Starred in 'Hocus Pocus' - Mental Floss
The 1993 film Hocus Pocus has become a popular Halloween movie in the decades since it was first released. Directed by Kenny Ortega, it centers on Max Dennison (Omri Katz), who summons three witches (played by Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy) who have been in purgatory for more than 300 years. However, it could have had a very different male lead: an actor little known at the time, but who would go on to become one of the biggest film stars of his era, Leonardo DiCaprio. Here's a look at how the future Oscar winner was almost cast in this early '90s movie. A Rising Star's Big BreakBecause the character of Max is a teenager in the movie, the filmmakers and studio looked at a number of young actors with promising careers when considering who would play the role. DiCaprio had drawn attention for being cast in his theatrical film debut opposite Robert De Niro in Michael Caton-Jones' This Boy's Life, and his ability to land a role in which he was sharing scenes with an actor as revered as De Niro naturally impressed people. He was therefore asked to audition for the male lead in Hocus Pocus too.
