House Of The Dragon, describing an unfolding “web of lies”.Adapted from George R.R. Martin’s novel Fire & Blood, the HBO prequel spin-off is set 200 years before events in Game Of Thrones.

Ethan Shanfeld Aside from Westerosi politics and fire-breathing beasts, HBO’s “House of the Dragon” plots the demise of a friendship between Young Rhaenyra (Milly Alcock) and Alicent Hightower (Emily Carey), who marries Rhae’s father, King Viserys (Paddy Considine), and threatens her friend’s heirdom with a newborn son. As Alcock noted in an interview with Nylon, “‘House of the Dragon’ highlights yes, the patriarchy, yes, misogyny, but also the internalized misogyny that these two women are forced to face. They’re forced to be put at odds with one another by the choices by men.” Since the characters are set in opposition due to decisions made by their fathers, Alcock added that she finds it “ironic” that the show’s fan base — which is mostly men — is simultaneously pitting the characters against each other.

Emily Carey was asked if she will be back for House of the Dragon season two.
