House of The Dragon’s Matt Smith on how a Daemon Targaryen spinoff would look like

The tangled web of complicated relationships that made up Game of Thrones will likewise be at the center of the upcoming second season of House of The Dragon. The Targaryens’ downfall is a result of House Hightower’s guile, as well as acts of love, jealousy, greed, and pride. One of The characters with the most pent-up emotions is Matt Smith’s Daemon Targaryen, which also makes him quite relatable.
