While these sex scenes make more sense than the ones in Game of Thronesthe stars still question whether they are absolutely necessary. Carpenter, who plays Daemon Targaryen, Rhaenyra’s uncle, said he was tired of these scenes. “You find yourself wondering, ‘Do we need another sex scene?'” he said Rolling Stone UK. “And they were like, ‘Yes, we do.'”
Eventually, Smith realized that sex was an important part of the universe Martin had created. “I guess you have to ask yourself: ‘What are you doing? Are you representing books or are you diluting books to represent time? [we’re living in]? “” said Smith. “And I really think it’s your duty to represent the books honestly and honestly, as they were written.”
