His National Theatre credits include: Alexander Herzen in "The Coast of Utopia" a trilogy of new plays ("Voyage", "Shipwreck" and "Salvage") by Tom Stoppard (August 2002), Prior Walter in the UK premiere of "Angels in America" by Tony Kushner (1993), Edmund Tyrone in "Long Day's Journey Into Night" by Eugene O'Neill (1991), Gerry in "Dancing at Lughnasa" by Brian Friel (1990), and Archer in "The Beaux Strategem" (1989).
Dillane is famous for portraying Stannis Baratheon in Game of Thrones (2011). After season 5 of the series, he said in an interview that he did not enjoy the show, and took the job only due to the money. Many fans of the show, however, interpreted this sentiment as a perfectly "Stannis thing to do," because Dillane's character, Stannis, gets involved in the wars and politics shown in the Game of Thrones despite not enjoying them.
If you feel uncomfortable on stage, you can very easily descend into a sort of abyss, convinced you're the worst actor ever, that you're a disgrace to the profession, that you're a disgrace to yourself. It's an awful feeling.
