HBO recently confirmed that former Doctor Who and The Crown star Matt Smith is going to portray Daemon Targaryen in the upcoming Game of Thrones prequel spinoff, House of the Dragon.
The story, set many years before the events of A Song of Ice and Fire, will chronicle the history of the Targaryens from Aegon’s conquest of Westeros to the Dance of Dragons and the breaking of the once majestic Valyrian house. And while it’s really difficult to imagine the quirky 11th Doctor as a character in the Seven Kingdoms, much less a noble, it’ll be interesting to see what the actor can bring to the role. If anything, Smith has shown such range and talent in his numerous projects over the years that there’s little to no doubt that the performance will be spectacular, if not downright inspiring, even by Game of Thrones‘ standards.
