Alicent actor Olivia Cooke recalls the internet's bizarre response to House of the Dragon season 1's scandalous feet scene with Lord Larys Strong.
Olivia Cooke, who plays Lady Alicent Hightower in House of the Dragon, has spoken about the bizarre online response to season 1’s scandalous feet scene. During episode 9, "The Green Council," Alicent’s confidante Lord Larys Strong offers to eliminate one of her political rivals when she removes her shoes and stockings. Prompting one of the show’s most-talked-about moments, Needham’s character then proceeds to pleasure himself at the sight of Alicent’s bare feet.
"It’s wild, because doing that scene, we knew that there was this intense power play at hand and exploring the deep shame and intricacies of that. But then, you know, the internet completely pulled stills and extrapolates whatever they wanted to, and it all became about the feet in the online discourse. So, yeah, it was mad, you just don’t know what’s going to hit, do you? You don’t know what people are going to be titillated by, and it was indeed that, and it was very surprising to me.
