Tommy Flanagan (Sons of Anarchy, Gladiator) has joined the cast of HBO‘s fantasy drama series House of the Dragon for Season 3 in a key role.
Based on Martin’s Fire & Blood and set 200 years before the events of Game of Thrones, House of the Dragon tells the story of House Targaryen.
Flanagan will star as Ser Roderick Dustin, a battle-hardened warlord of the north who leads a large contingent of veteran soldiers known as the Winter Wolves into battle at the Dance of the Dragons to support Rhaenyra Targaryen’s claim.
Flanagan joins the previously announced new cast member James Norton, who will portray Ormund Hightower in the new season. In Martin’s books, Dustin and Hightower eventually face off on opposing sides of the battle.
