All About Emily Carey’s Role in ‘House Of The Dragon’
HBO’s much anticipated ‘House of Dragon’ is a prequel to another of their legendary epics, ‘Game of Thrones’ which explores the loves and lives of the Targaryen family as they all fight for the glorious Iron Throne. Alicent Hightower (played by Emily Carey) is Princess Rhaenyra’s best friend who is the heir to the Iron Throne. In an interview with Collider, she shared how she wrapped her head around such an opportunity. “When the opportunity came about, we couldn’t wrap our heads around it because we didn’t know what it was, we were auditioning for, at all. But when I found out, I couldn’t process it. I didn’t process it for about three days. It didn’t kick in until day three, that it was actually this show. When I started reading the script, I was like, ‘Huh, that’s me. That’s my character. This is crazy.’ But I truly don’t think I ever fully processed it,” Carey said.
She further revealed that she journaled in character which is very near and dear to her heart in order to get into the skin of Alicent Hightower. She believes that Alicent and she are quite similar and thus, it was easy for her to tap into her brain and write firsthand. This similarity also made it easy for her to tap in and out of character. Upon being asked if this feels like a personal story and if it helped connect with the family drama aspect, Carey answered, “One hundred percent. For one, what makes it so watchable as a viewer is that, even if you aren’t necessarily into the genre. For a fantasy fan, this gives you everything and more. It’s never really been my genre. I never really got the hype until I watched it and was like, ‘You know, it’s not just about the dragons and the fantasy and this crazy world. At its core, it’s a very grounded story with very grounded, truthful, complex characters’. I think our show is the exact same.”
With so much hype and anticipation surrounding the series, it’s only a matter of time before we find out what it has in store for its young cast.
