House Of The Dragon writer doesn't get why Matt Smith's character Daemon became 'Internet Boyfriend'
Daily MailHe has accumulated an impressive bodycount, but that doesn't seem to stop fans from thirsting after Matt Smith's House Of The Dragon character Daemon Targaryen. The two delved into the character's appeal to fans after the penultimate episode of season one, in which Daemon showed his love for his ailing brother King Viserys by helping him to the Iron Throne and defended his wife Rhaenyra with a bloody sacrifice. Doesn't get it: House Of The Dragon writer and producer Sara Hess was puzzled about fans' love for Matt Smith's character Daemon Targaryen during a chat with The Hollywood Reporter; still from House Of The Dragon THR noted Daemon helping Viserys, which was mentioned by several fans on social media, though the outlook suggested that it may just have been self-serving, as he was hoping the king would rule in his daughter Rhaenyra's favor. Smoothed out: Hess signaled that Daemon would be portrayed in a more simplistic, black-and-white manner with the upcoming first season finale, as well as the upcoming second season, to make him a more traditional villain; still from House Of The Dragon Can't get enough: Following episode nine, several fans took to Twitter to share their love of Smith's portrayal of Daemon Loving it: Another gushed about, 'Daemon literally risking his life by going to wake up and claim a dragon named vermithon who belonged to King Jahaerys's just to help defend Rhaenyra,' adding, 'He's the most devoted malewife ever' Following episode nine, several fans took to Twitter to share their love of Smith's portrayal of Daemon.
