[Excerpt]: Patel was also the first director who got to work with the actors playing Alicent’s children as adults: Tom Glynn-Carney as Aegon Targaryen and Ewan Mitchell as his one-eyed younger brother Aemond. “Ewan was so creepy and gave me chills, and yet when he is off camera, he’s the sweetest person you’ve ever met,” Patel said. “Every time you finish a take, he’ll say, ‘Do you want me to do it better? I can do it better. What do you want me to do?’ He’s just one of those people who works so hard and it just cracks me up because as soon as the camera’s on, he’s this other person. I think he did a really good job finding who he was and giving that person nuance and discovery. So I’m very proud of him.”
