“what i‘m going to miss most is the people. it’s so rare that you get to come back and work with the same people for eight years. we’ve all grown so close and we all feel we’re part of the same team, pulling the same ship in the same direction.”

John Bradley West is an English actor born on September 15th, 1988. Bradley was born and grew up as a Catholic in the Wythenshawe district of South Manchester and attended St Paul's Roman Catholic High School. He has a sister who is 13 years older than he is. In 2005, Bradley began attending Loreto College in the Hulme area of Manchester, where he studied Drama and Theatre Studies. He graduated from Loreto in 2007 and later received a BA in acting at the Manchester School of Theatre, graduating in 2010.

Three months after he graduated from drama school, in his first audition, Bradley won the part of Samwell Tarly in the 2011 HBO fantasy TV series Game of Thrones. His character is a friend of Kit Harington's character Jon Snow and provides occasional comic relief, especially in the first season. As the series progressed, Bradley's Tarly developed significantly and one reviewer called him "a wonderful comedic and cowardly yin to Jon's dour yang". The author of the book series, George R. R. Martin, said that the character that Bradley portrays is the character he would be, if he were on the show.

In 2011, Bradley appeared in the Canal+ drama, Borgia, in the role of Pope Leo X, Giovanni di Lorenzo de' Medici. In 2012, he played the character Tyr Seward in the BBC production of Merlin in series 5, in the episode "A Lesson in Vengeance." The same year, he appeared on the Channel 4 TV series, Shameless, in the role of Wesley, Frank Gallagher's boss, in two episodes of series 10. In 2015, Bradley played the role of Miloš Hrma in the BBC Radio Salford radio play production of Closely Observed Trains. In 2017, he played Ricky Rollins in the supernatural thriller American Satan. In 2018, Bradley appeared as Scooter in the film Patient Zero, starring alongside Stanley Tucci and fellow Game of Thrones star Natalie Dormer. Most recently, he starred alongside Halle Berry and Patrick Wilson, in the science-fiction film Moonfall (2022), as well as the romantic comedy Marry Me (2002), opposite Jennifer Lopez and Owen Wilson.
