R.I.P. Darren Kent, actor from Game Of Thrones and Dungeons & Dragons

Other than an appearance on the original British Shameless, Kent’s first acting roles where in horror movies Mirrors and Asylum Blackout, and in 2011 he starred in the short film Sunny Boy as a boy who—like Kent himself—lived with a rare skin disorder (Variety says Kent also had osteoporosis and arthritis). He later had small roles in Snow White And The Huntsman and Game Of Thrones, playing a man herding goats in Essos in one episode.

Kent had a recurring role as The Scholar on Syfy’s grindhouse-inspired Blood Drive, which starred Alan Ritchson as a cop in a dystopian United States where survivors race cars that run on blood, and he also appeared in two episodes of EastEnders. He filmed appearances in a number of projects before his death that have been released yet, but one of his final roles was in Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves, playing one of the (many) slain soldiers reanimated by the heroes as they try to track down a mystical artifact (one of the best scenes in any movie released this year). Kent specifically played the first corpse reanimated, the one who answers “yes” to a bunch of accidental questions before the spell reviving him wears off.
