‘House of the Dragon’ Director on Aemond’s Nude Scene and ‘Mommy Issues,’ That [SPOILER] Cameo and All the Criston Cole Hate: ‘We All Have a Bit of Criston in Us’
'House of the Dragon' director Geeta Patel talks Aemond's nude scene, Milly Alcock's cameo and the Criston Cole hate.
On Dragonstone, the black council advises Rhaenyra (Emma D’Arcy) to assemble an army, and she sends her youngest children, Joffrey, Viserys II and Aegon III, across the sea with Rhaena Targaryen (Phoebe Campbell) for safety. Back in King’s Landing, Aegon goes out on a drunken night of debauchery with his Kingsguard buddies and runs into his brother Aemond Targaryen (Ewan Mitchell), who’s cuddling naked with a prostitute. A lot of the feeling in that scene comes from Episode 8 of last season, which I was also lucky enough to direct, because that’s where Viserys proves to Rhaenyra that he loves her, and he puts her first because he gets out of bed when he’s dying and walks across that throne room.
