27-year-old actor Ewan Mitchell, portraying Prince Aemond Targaryen in "House of the Dragon," decided not to watch the original "Game of Thrones" or read George R.R. Martin's books to avoid influencing his performance. Mitchell wore an eyepatch off-screen as well, which occasionally caused headaches but helped him stay in character. The show's large scale led to a two-year gap between seasons 1 and 2, with fans anticipating a similar wait for season 3.
