Though Aegon II now finds himself on the Iron Throne in King's Landing, he's hardly prepared for the role of king. After spending years as a spoiled and somewhat morally questionable prince, Aegon was told by his mother, Alicent (Olivia Cooke), that his father proclaimed him as heir to her on his deathbed. Bolstered by the support of the small folk, he now believes himself the rightful king of Westeros. He has the support of the rest of the Greens, which include his mother, his grandfather, Otto Hightower (Rhys Ifans), his sister/wife Helaena (Phia Saban), his brother Aemond (Ewan Mitchell), and the commander of the Kingsguard, Ser Criston Cole (Fabien Frankel.)
We spoke with Tom Glynn-Carney about Aegon's new position as king and the challenges that come with playing such a complicated character. Aegon isn't known to be the best of men, but Glynn-Carney also asserts that he is not completely irredeemable. We talked about his relationship wit his grandfather and mother and their manipulation of him, as well as his role as a father to his young children. Finally, Glynn-Carney teased a scene in Season 2, Episode 2 that promises to be one of his most challenging scenes.

How can you not crush on Tom Glynn-Carney?!
-
This was a nice interview
-
Good questions that really let actors analyze their characters from different angles, loved Tom's insight on Aemond's fatherhood: even if he sort of advocates for Aemond to an extent, he still doesn't let him off the hook easy.

aegons goated

Maelor isn't talked about yet. I do wonder if they've cut the youngest child out of the plot, or that he's not born yet. Could go hand in hand with some Helaemond.
