House of The Dragon director who shot Viserys’ last walk will return in Season 2

House of The Dragon episode 8 ‘The Lord of the Tides’ was one of the most emotional chapters yet in the history of Game of Thrones. It leaves so many cues to the nature of the morally grey characters in the series, no one is truly evil, nor completely good. Paddy Considine’s performance as King Viserys was applauded by fans and critics alike, even by George R. R. Martin himself. The director who shot the iconic scene, Geeta Patel, will be returning for Season 2, along with a few others.

Who is Geeta Patel?

Geeta Patel is an Emmy-nominated director, who came to the limelight for her comedic documentary Meet the Patels (2014). After directing two episodes in season 2 of the Netflix fantasy series The Witcher, she joined the production of Game of Thrones prequel House of The Dragon and directed the episode ‘The Lord of The Tides’, which received widespread acclaim for Paddy Considine’s performance and Patel’s direction.

Who else is returning for House of The Dragon Season 2?

According to a recent report by the Redanian Intelligence, Geeta Patel, along with Clare Kilner, who directed the episodes King of the Narrow Sea, We Light the Way, and The Green Council will also be back in Season 2.
