Daemon Targaryen, played by Matt Smith, is one of the most recognizable actors in the initial cast list for House of the Dragon. He is slotted into a role that makes him very similar to Tyrion Lannister from Game of Thrones. He’s the character who snarkily deconstructs the things in which everyone around him is invested.
Moreover, Daemon is particularly a unique character in the House of the Dragon universe. While he’s arguably the protagonist of House of the Dragon, he’s also arguably its antagonist. And it’s not always clear where he falls on the spectrum between good and bad. That’s not to say that Daemon is a hero. He has done many terrible things over the course of the series as well.
Recently, Matt Smith appeared at the Heroes Comic Con Brussels 2022. There, the 39-year-old actor was asked if Daemon was in the time of Game of Thrones, what would have been his relationship with Jon Snow, especially after he killed Daenerys Targaryen in the eighth season of Game of Thrones? To this, Matt Smith replied:
“I don’t think Jon Snow would survive very long.”

Although he did answer it in a way that Daemon would have, fans are not sure if any better answers could have existed. There are so many variables to consider when answering this question, and those variables change depending on who you ask.
