HBO Max had previously revealed that Emma D’Arcy plays Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen. Her official character description states, “The king’s first-born child, she is of pure Valyrian blood, and she is a dragonrider. Many would say that Rhaenyra was born with everything… but she was not born a man.”
They had also announced that Matt Smith would play Prince Daemon Targaryen. His official description reads, “The younger brother to King Viserys and heir to the throne. A peerless warrior and a dragonrider, Daemon possesses the true blood of the dragon. But it is said that whenever a Targaryen is born, the gods toss a coin in the air…”
Steve Toussaint is Lord Corlys Velaryon also known as The Sea Snake. His description says, “Lord of House Velaryon, a Valyrian bloodline as old as House Targaryen. As “The Sea Snake,” the most famed nautical adventurer in the history of Westeros, Lord Corlys built his house into a powerful seat that is even richer than the Lannisters and that claims the largest navy in the world.”
Olivia Cooke plays Alicent Hightower. Her description says, “The daughter of Otto Hightower, the Hand of the King, and the most comely woman in the Seven Kingdoms. She was raised in the Red Keep, close to the king and his innermost circle; she possesses both a courtly grace and a keen political acumen.”
Finally, they had previously announced Rhys Ifans as Otto Hightower. His description reads, “The Hand of the King, Ser Otto loyally and faithfully serves both his king and his realm.
