House of the Dragon, the highly acclaimed prequel to Game of Thrones, has been capturing the hearts of viewers worldwide since its premiere. One of the stars of the series, Emma D’Arcy, who portrays Rhaenyra Targaryen, recently shared some valuable advice she received from none other than Emilia Clarke, the beloved actor who brought Daenerys Targaryen to life in Game of Thrones.
In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, D’Arcy expressed her gratitude for Emilia Clarke’s generosity and guidance. When asked about the specific advice she received, D’Arcy playfully kept it to herself, leaving fans curious about the valuable insights shared between the two talented actors.
D’Arcy also shared her thoughts on the transformative power of the character’s iconic wig, which has allowed her to maintain some semblance of anonymity in her day-to-day life. Playing such a significant role in a series of this magnitude brings its challenges, but D’Arcy recognizes the importance of observing others while avoiding constant scrutiny as part of her craft.
House of the Dragon has received immense praise for its captivating storytelling and impressive performances, leading to its renewal for a second season. The highly anticipated return is expected to consist of eight episodes, offering a more concise narrative than its debut season.
Recent reports indicate that the production process for the second season will be more streamlined without the hindrance of the COVID-19 pandemic, allowing for smoother filming. The show is also rumored to have two additional seasons in the pipeline, fulfilling the vision of George R.R. Martin, the author of the book “Fire and Blood,” on which the series is based.
Fortunately, House of the Dragon remains unaffected by the ongoing Writers Guild of America (WGA) strike, as the scripts for the upcoming season were already completed in advance. Filming has already commenced in the United Kingdom and is set to conclude in Spain.
Fans can look forward to Emma D’Arcy reprising her role as Rhaenyra Targaryen in House of The Dragon Season 2, scheduled to premiere on HBO in 2024. In the meantime, all eight seasons of the iconic Game of Thrones are available for streaming on HBO Max, providing a chance to relive the unforgettable journey through the realm of Westeros.
