A chat with some of the cast members of House of the Dragon at a photo shoot. They talk about their characters, production, and the series in general.
Matt Smith described the Targaryens: “I think they need a lot, a great deal of therapy...”
Steve Toussaint said that compared to GoT: “Politics and politicking play a greater role, I think, in this.” That is actually saying a lot.
Olivia Cooke had not seen Game of Thrones before getting the part of Alicent Hightower. Interestingly, for her audition she was asked to do some of Cersei Lannister’s lines.
