Ever wonder what Emilia Clarke, well known for her role as Daenerys Targaryen in Game of Thrones, might look like if she were to play House of the Dragon‘s Rhaenyra Targaryen?

The casting on both House of the Dragon and Game of Thrones has always been the franchise’s one of the strongest points. And it’s eerily wonderful how much Milly Alcock’s young Rhaenyra resembled Emma D’Arcy’s older version. And sure enough, the same applies when you put Daenerys’ face on a younger Rhaenyra.
