Slaying the proverbial dragon as Geralt and then riding dragons as Targaryen – Henry Cavill would fit perfectly into the dazzling world of Westeros for his international fan base.
So the scene whispers heavily. Could it be that Henry Cavill gets hired on House of the Dragon?
At least that’s what a connoisseur of the scene claims. The US broadcaster HBO should take the hero from “The Witcher” for a possible role in the casting selection.
“House of the Dragon” reviewed:
That’s not all: In the course of the lively debate, Elizabeth Olsen, who plays Wanda Maximoff in the “Marvel Cinematic Universe” in the second of the first spin-offs for “Game of Thrones”, could also come into play.
Since the phenomenal premiere of “House of the Dragon”, another edition has now also been officially confirmed. Even if, with Miguel Sapochnik, one of the two showrunners has left.
HBO confirmed this expansion shortly after the debut of the Game of Thrones prequel.
There is no speculation as to whether serious negotiations are already underway and what roles Cavill and Olsen should play. In any case, die-hard fans agree that Cavill would be a perfect fit for the role of Targaryen. Elizabeth Olsen has been announced for a role as the Red Priestess, as does Melisandre; in “Game of Thrones” embodied by the Dutchwoman Carice van Houten.
From a purely visual point of view, the actress playing the Scarlet Witch in the “Marvel Cinematic Universe” would definitely fit into the role of a Red Priestess … but hand on heart: How trustworthy are these sources?
The rumor surrounding Cavill and Olsen’s season two stint stems from industry insider Daniel Richtman and his Twitter expertise. Its forecasts have often turned out to be accurate in the past. In the world of fantasy, however, a certain amount of imagination is not uncommon.
