Michelle Fairley

Michelle Fairley will always be Catelyn Stark to me, and that's a compliment to how completely she inhabited the role. Her Game of Thrones run from 2011 to 2013 gave the early seasons a moral spine. What I appreciate is that she never coasted on that fame; she's kept working across Suits, 24: Live Another Day, Rebellion, The Feed, and the brutal Gangs of London. Born in Coleraine in 1964, she carries that Northern Irish grounding into roles that demand steel. She's the kind of character actor a production can build trust around.
