I mean I understand, sure. But I’m sure they could have aged the girls with makeup and/or prosthetics instead of changing actors to woman that look nothing like the younger versions.


See I think using CGI & or prosthetics would look weirder than casting an actress who looks similar but older.

You dont think they look anything like their younger version ?

I was wondering about that

Cause the half black children have changed actors to much older people

While the two girls look the same

It was a good thing that the young actresses killed it but some people apparently got attached.

I don't mind it since a huge time jump is necessary to the plot.

But it was pretty stupid how they little half black n white girl grew so much, diffeent actress, I can't tell who's the aunt, or is it just a new actress, a little hard to folllow


But princess rhinerra stayed the same,
The crown also changes actresses when they age, but by the season , not by the episode

N I like rhinerra too, episode 5 was kinda boring, but no spoilers here right

The first 5 episodes was a setup for the main plot.

It was necessary to show how the war started instead of jumping in right before it with no context. This should be the last big time jump that requires new actors.

They’re both fine but the age gaps between the young and old actresses don’t warrant new castings lol there are much simpler solutions, especially since it’s a mix of new actors and cgi/makeup aged old ones

Ok I’m insanely interested in HOTD once again. That episode was my favourite yet. Plenty of spice and tension amongst the family and heaps to look forward to

Yeah the recast was always planned and known about. I think it’s a shame it was this early in the entire series regarding Rhaenyra as imo Milly Alcock was great and Emma D’Arcy doesn’t do much for me, but the Alicent recast is a wash. Olivia Cooke is a great actress and Emily Carey is hot af imo.

Remember when I told you to wait for the slowburn leading to the war to end before judging it m8?

We still haven't even seen the start of the actual war yet.
