Tom Glynn-Carney talks about the prosthetics used for Aegon’s injuries

House of the Dragon’s prosthetics department has always hit the mark with its designs. Glynn-Carney, who plays Aegon, recently talked to EW about the ones used for his injuries, “It’s quite the undertaking for everybody involved. It means a long time in the chair. It means a lot of being in my own head with my own thoughts. It means a lot of sitting around covered in this gloopy stuff. I don’t know what the material is. 

I was allowed to collaborate in a way that I wanted it to restrict my movement as much as possible. There’s a piece down my neck, which is really tight and forces me to move as one unit rather than being able to move my head independently, which is typical of somebody with facial burns and neck burns, where the skin is so tight. It really helped influence the way that Aegon moves now.”

Paddy Considine loved wearing prosthetics

Paddy Considine was the breakout performance in Season 1 of House of the Dragon. Glynn-Carney reminisced how he would’ve loved the getup, “Paddy loves that stuff. Halloween is his Christmas and New Year’s and Easter. I could see how excited he was to be able to do that, even though he sat in the chair for hours. But, yeah, I know where the story goes [for Aegon], and it’s one that I’m just going to have to get used to, I think.”
