The nudity of game of Thrones has House of the Dragon
When it debuted in 2011, game of Thrones had earned a reputation as a sulphurous series, not hesitating to show nudity and sex scenes. Over the seasons, the show has calmed down a bit on this level, in step with a shift in mindset in the industry, reflected in particular by the use of intimacy coordinators for these specific sequences. House of the Dragonfirst spin-off of game of Thrones launched in 2022, it also did not accumulate sex scenes, although there are still passages of nudity. Like the shocking sequence in episode 4 of season 1, between Rhaenyra and her uncle Daemon, which made headlines.
Even Matt Smith, the interpreter of the latter, felt that there were still too many sex scenes in this first chapter. An opinion I don’t really share Olivia Cooke, who plays Alicent. At least as far as the second season is concerned. As she revealed SheShe “I thought there would be many moreAnd she would also have liked for a sex scene to be kept in the editing.
“It really was a disaster”
According to the actress, she filmed an intimate sequence which she describes as “carnal” and “animal”. A passage that wasn’t necessarily sexy, or even confusing, and that she would have liked to film.
It really was a disaster. It wasn’t pretty and it was fun to do.
However, showrunner Ryan Condel would eventually do so has decided to do without this step. The latter believing that said sequence added nothing else to the characters. A position with which Olivia Cooke is”slightly disagree“, but she accepts. Indeed, during the interview with Shethe actress insists that, in her opinion, the intimate scenes she was able to shoot House of the Dragon they were not freebut it provided real insight into his character’s development and psychology.
In any case, with the airing of the first episode of season 2 ofHouse of the Dragonit’s not really an intimate scene that we will remember, but rather the heartbreaking passage with Rhaenyra crying, or even the final scene particularly shocking.
