What Matt Smith Would Love To See Less Of In House Of The Dragon
House of the Dragon star Matt Smith makes a suggestion to the showrunners about some of Prince
Daemon Targaryen’s most notorious scenes
Matt Smith, star of House of the Dragon, recently suggested that the show could benefit from less sex in its upcoming second season. The show is set hundreds of years before Game of Thrones and features unique takes on George R. R. Martin's novels. House of the Dragon has gained popularity due to its dramatic action, compelling storytelling, and explicit content, which includes sex and violence
Smith, who plays the character Daemon Targaryen, has been praised for his performance as the charismatic anti-hero. However, in a recent interview with Rolling Stone, he expressed concern over the excessive sex scenes in the show. He questioned whether the scenes were necessary to stay true to the books or if they were merely gratuitous
The Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon novels are known for their explicit content, including rape and incest. While House of the Dragon has received criticism for its portrayal of sexual relationships, Smith is not alone in his opinion. Penn Badgley, star of Netflix's You, also recently spoke out about the need to dial back explicit scenes in the show's fourth season
It remains to be seen whether HBO will take Smith's suggestion to heart. The network has a reputation for producing shows with explicit and problematic representations of sexuality. House of the Dragon's first season contained explicit scenes despite promises of less gratuitous sex than its predecessor
Overall, it's clear that House of the Dragon is a show that pushes boundaries with its content. While Smith's comments may spark a conversation about the role of sex in the show, it remains to be seen whether or not the network will make changes in response
