@UgotjayD@lorxell The losses that Rhaenyra goes through. Milly would never have been able to give a performance the way Emma does, and all the makeup in the world wouldn’t make it believable that a 21 year old is the mother of 5 sons
emma choosing the red keep over dragonstone, a dragon battle over a naval one and being on the iron throne over living adventures around westeros
so monarch of them 😌
It’s not that hard to understand that they were given two different versions of Rhaenyra, one is the young rebel, and the other is the one who is losing her entire family. And Milly is a good actor, but she never would have been able to give a performance at the level Emma does
@dee_wext Obviously they are different, bc they were given two different Rhaenyras. One is the young rebel, and the other is the one who is losing her entire family
I’m still shocked because I genuinely thought they had used a body double or a dummy for that scene😭 I’m so glad Emma got to hold and hug him so much before he left
Harry Collett on Emma D’Arcy's performance while he acted dead in 'House of the Dragon' S3E2
"It was really hard for me to act dead that day because the... the performance was like unbelievable and was so real. And I mean, watched the episode now, like on screen, which I properly got to see it there. But even just hearing their voice, just screaming and obviously [the weight] down on my body and it was just such a real reaction. And they had to do that for like 10 hours that whole day. And each time was as strong as the other take."
