Cast and team behind House of the Dragon delve into the shocking climax of Episode 4.
Hey there, crew! 🐲🔥
From the fiery skies of Westeros, we've heard whispers about the dramatic turn of events in the fourth episode of House of the Dragon. Brace yourself, fellow fans, as our favorite series delivers another heart-stopping moment that'll make you question who's safe in this game of thrones.
It's not a spoiler if I tell you that not all characters survive the show's vivid, dragon-filled battles. In an exclusive chat with Entertainment Weekly, the brilliant minds behind House of the Dragon opened up about the epic Battle of Rook's Rest, which marked a turning point in the history of the show. And let me tell you, things got messy!
In this bloody carnage, one of the show's central characters met a tragic end. Eve Best, who plays the wise and noble Princess Rhaenys Targaryen, shared some poignant insights about her character's gripping departure. You might remember Rhaenys as the one who, against all odds, demonstrated unyielding courage, wisdom, and integrity. Sadly, she's no longer with us.
Biding her farewell, Rhaenys courageously turned back into the chaos of the battle, neither fleeing nor surrendering. This brave choice echoes back to a crucial moment at the end of Season 1, when Rhaenys chose not to destroy the Greens, despite the opportunity.
Fast forward to the present day, the ever-loyal Rhaenys mounts her steadfast dragon, Meleys, to confront her nemesis, Vhagar. But as she soars skyward, fate deals a crushing blow. Meleys is swallowed by Vhagar, and Rhaenys takes a fateful plunge. It's a somber goodbye that'll leave you wondering who's next to join the already extensive cast of departed characters.
But it's not all doom and gloom. Eve Best offered some comforting words about her character's final moments, calling it "a moment of total surrender and letting go." In a beautiful twist, Rhaenys finally finds release from the burden of stoicism and hardship she's carried throughout the show.
As we all bid farewell to Rhaenys, Best reflects on her character's impact, "They're going to be really screwed without her."indeed.
