House of the Dragon: Matt Smith believes Daemon would have backed Daenerys all the way in Game of Thrones
In the very first episode of House of the Dragon, viewers were introduced to Daemon Targaryen (Matt Smith). This character was expected to be the heir to the Iron Throne after King Viserys (Paddy Considine) had not yet produced a male heir. Because Daemon is Viserys’ brother, many assumed he would rule in his place.
