Charlie Hunnam has a longer list of almost-roles than most actors admit to, and a fresh rundown from Just Jared, published Friday, puts a number on it: six.

Two of those are superhero parts. One is a role on Game of Thrones. The outlet's slideshow, built from things Hunnam has said in interviews across the years, doesn't name the specific characters or films involved, just that he came close on a couple of superhero auditions and had a shot at joining HBO's fantasy juggernaut before it ended up going another way.

That's frustratingly vague if you're the sort who wants the exact role and the exact reason it fell through. But it tracks with how Hunnam, 46, has talked about his career before, in pieces and bits scattered across a decade of press tours rather than one tell-all sitdown.

His actual filmography tells its own story of a guy who's zigzagged instead of chasing the obvious franchise money. Sons of Anarchy in 2008 made him a name. Since then he's built a run that includes King Arthur, The Lost City of Z, Triple Frontier and, most recently, Monster: The Lizzie Borden Story, the true-crime anthology entry that won him an Emmy.

That's a résumé of a guy who could plausibly have been in the mix for a cape or a seat at King's Landing and simply didn't end up there. Whether it was scheduling, a director going a different direction, or Hunnam himself passing, Just Jared's list doesn't sort out. It groups the superhero near-misses and the Thrones brush together with other projects he auditioned for and didn't book, without drawing a line between what he turned down and what simply wasn't offered.

Hunnam has never been shy about franchise fatigue in past interviews, and fans have long speculated about which DC or Marvel property might have almost had him. None of that gets confirmed here.

What is clear is that none of these near-misses seem to bother him much. He's kept working steadily in the years since, picking prestige limited series and true-crime roles over blockbuster tentpoles. If there's a specific superhero name or a specific Thrones character attached to this story, Hunnam hasn't put it on record in anything cited so far, and it's anyone's guess whether he ever will.
