FAQs

Aidan Gillen is an Irish actor. He is best known for portraying Petyr Littlefinger Baelish in the HBO series Game of Thrones (2011), CIA operative Bill Wilson in The Dark Knight Rises (2012), Stuart Alan Jones in the Channel 4 series.
He is known for his portrayal of Petyr Littlefinger Baelish in the HBO series Game of Thrones, Tommy Carcetti in the HBO series The Wire, Stuart Alan Jones in the Channel 4 series Queer as Folk, John Boy in the RTÉ series Love/Hate and CIA operative Bill Wilson in The Dark Knight Rises.
He is dangerously intelligent, utterly Machiavellian, and cunning enough to hide his machinations. Since Petyr is not a POV character his motivations are somewhat of a mystery. However he has stated his motivations were his lingering love towards Catelyn Stark and (in the show) Sansa Stark.
To further his goal of sitting on the Iron Throne, Baelish took Sansa Stark under his wing in order to gain some influence within House Stark, but his role in the deaths of Eddard Stark, Jon Arryn, and Lysa Arryn was finally exposed, and he was executed for his crimes.
Littlefinger was known for loving Sansa's mother Catelyn, but in the wake of Catelyn's death, he became increasingly fond of Sansa — or so it seemed. Littlefinger took advantage of Sansa, and made it seem as though he was romantically interested in her to gain power.
