Alfie Allen – Who He Is, What He’s Done and What’s Next
If you’ve watched Game of Thrones, you probably remember the sneaky Littlefinger’s son, the spiky‑haired kid who caused a lot of trouble. That was Alfie Allen, a British actor who’s been on screen since he was a teenager.
Alfie was born on September 12, 1986, into a family of actors. His dad, Keith Allen, and his sister, Lily Allen, are both in the entertainment world. Growing up around sets gave him a chance to try acting early, and he landed his first TV role at 15.
Big Breaks and Memorable Roles
The role that put Alfie on the map was the ‘Little Spoon’ in Game of Thrones. He appeared in the first season and kept popping up in later seasons as the plot thickened. The character may have been small, but fans still talk about him because he added a lot of tension.
After Game of Thrones, Alfie didn’t just stick to fantasy. He showed he could do drama, comedy and even horror. In 2013 he starred in Skins (Series 6) as a troubled teen, and in 2015 he played a lead in the British indie film Hush. He also had a role in the thriller Kill Your Friends, proving he can handle darker material.
One of his most talked‑about projects was the 2020 Netflix series Sex Education. Alfie played Adam Groff’s older brother, a small but effective part that added depth to the family dynamic. Fans liked how he blended into the ensemble without stealing the spotlight.
What’s Coming Up?
Alfie keeps busy. He’s set to appear in a new crime drama called Shadow Line that starts shooting later this year. The show follows a group of detectives hunting a syndicate in London, and Alfie will play a tech‑savvy informant.
Besides acting, Alfie is also getting into producing. He announced a partnership with a London indie studio to develop short films focused on mental health. He says the goal is to give younger talent a platform and tell stories that matter.
If you want to stay updated, keep an eye on his social media. He often shares behind‑the‑scenes photos, upcoming project teasers, and occasional funny moments with his sister Lily. It’s a good way to see his personality off‑camera.
In short, Alfie Allen is more than just a kid from Game of Thrones. He’s a versatile actor who’s building a solid career across TV, film and now production. Whether you’re a fan of fantasy, drama or indie movies, there’s probably an Alfie project worth checking out.
