Aidan Gillen, a.k.a. Littlefinger, joins the Maze Runner sequel
Continuing his campaign to be labeled the least trustworthy man in all of fiction, Game Of Thrones and The Wire co-star Aidan Gillen has signed on to play an antagonist in The Maze Runner: Scorch Trials. Gillen, who plays the vile-but-charming Littlefinger on Game Of Thrones and is probably a very nice man in real life, will be playing Janson in the planned sequel to this summer’s dystopian young-adult success. Also known as Rat-Face (ouch), Gillen’s character is the one who forces protagonist Thomas and his fellow maze-running teens to endure the titular trials, which we’re going to assume take place somewhere hot.
