In a recent interview with Deadline, Tom Glynn-Carney, who plays King Aegon II in House of the Dragon, delved into Aegon's complex personality and relationships.
Following the epic dragon battle in episode four, many fans believed King Aegon was dead. However, Glynn-Carney clarified that his character survived, although severely injured. He shared insights into the filming process of the dragon fight, describing it as "great fun" but also a "big learning curve" due to the extensive CGI involved.
Glynn-Carney also discussed Aegon's character, emphasizing that he is not simply unlikeable but a "tragic case" shaped by his upbringing and lack of experience. He explored Aegon's vulnerabilities and the reasons behind his volatile behavior.
The actor also addressed Aegon's relationship with his brother Aemond, stating that it doesn't stem from dislike but rather a sense of sibling rivalry and a need to establish dominance. He drew parallels to his own experiences growing up in Manchester, where fractured sibling relationships are common.
Glynn-Carney's insights shed light on the complexities of Aegon Targaryen, revealing a deeper understanding of the character's motivations and actions. Fans can look forward to seeing how Aegon's story unfolds as House of the Dragon continues to explore the intricacies of the Targaryen dynasty.
