“I’ve learned a lot from him. I’ve learned how to play in what can be an intense environment.”

It’s all happening in Westeros at the moment, scheming, family feuds, epic throne room scenes, and fighting for what one loves. At the epicenter of all this drama emanating from HBO’s House of the Dragon are two of the series’ most beloved characters, Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen and Prince Daemon Targaryen . The pair of characters have shared a special connection since the beginning of the show when Rhaenyra was played by Milly Alcock.

COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY Rhaenyra and Daemon are married on the show, their union is a formidable one and it would seem that the strength of the working relationship had been built behind the scenes. “God, I’m so grateful to Matt,” D’Arcy says. Their words ring true as can be seen with the way Smith’s Daemon coasts through high-intensity moments on the show without offering more than a smirk half the time.

D'Arcy goes on to express just how Smith has been able to ease the actor’s time in front of the camera. “He has taught me how to ignore the various pressures, the time pressures, all the things that come with shooting on this scale, and tap back into those first principles.” D'Arcy goes on to explain how they felt about having to work on a project of this size while also being extremely modest about their abilities. “I was really scared coming to this whole process,” D’Arcy said.

House of the Dragon airs a new episode every Sunday. You can stream previous episodes on HBO Max. Watch the clip below:
