House of the Dragon star naked in ‘shocking’ scene with real manhood exposed

House of the Dragon fans saw one star expose their manhood in a brothel.

Fans of HBO’s Game of Thrones prequel weren’t expecting to see quite so much of one Targaryen prince during the third episode – The Burning Mill – of season two. Actor Ewan Mitchell could be seen standing proud with his tackle out inside a brothel in King’s Landing.

It’s certainly not the first time we’ve seen naked bodies in Westeros. Fans of George R.R. Martin’s TV adaptations have grown rather accustomed to brothel-based bonks over the years.

However, it was the first time fans witnessed Aemond Targaryen (Mitchell) get totally nude in the series, and it turns out no prosthetics or special effects were used. The star said he wanted to ‘shock’ viewers by exposing his penis in the brothel.

The awkward scene sees Aemond interrupted by his older brother Aegon (Tom Glynn-Carney) while he’s cuddling with brothel owner Sylvi. Aegon mocks his brother for his issue with intimacy and taste in women.

Fed up with his brother, Aemond gets up and storms out of the room with his penis hanging out. Actor Mitchell revealed that he was able to wear as much as he wanted, but decided to go completely starkers.

He told Vulture: “Scenes like this start with a conversation about how far you’re prepared to go. It wasn’t a choice we made lightly. But it’s true to Aemond that he shocks the audience. Weakness is not part of Aemond’s vocabulary.”

The actor said he saw a ‘brilliant opportunity to offer a rare glimpse of his [character’s] vulnerability’ when he first read the script of the scene. Director Geeta Patel heaped praise on Mitchell for being brave enough to bare all for the sake of his character.

She told the publication: “Ewan is such a great actor. He understands what he needs to do in order to portray Aemond.

“When I spoke with him originally about the nudity, I said to him, ‘Let’s just go through the story. If you don’t feel comfortable being nude, then you’re not going to be nude.’ We were both on the same page.

“That shift, from someone who’s vulnerable to literally watching him put on his armour, was what we were going for. It’s one of the few times you see the young child in him and you see the pain in him.

“Slowly he starts putting on his armour and when he stands up, the fact that he doesn’t care that you see his penis is such a strong visceral shift.” Patel then confirmed it was really Mitchell’s penis in the scene.

She added: “What we came to is that Aemond was hurt. He was bullied when he was little. Since he was hurt, he had created this persona that was the exact opposite of how he was feeling. He created the persona of someone who is callous and has no regard for what others think of him.

“Slowly he starts putting on his armour and when he stands up, the fact that he doesn’t care that you see his penis is such a strong visceral shift. Ewan was like, ‘I want to be fully nude in that moment. It’s important to me because that’s who my character is. That’s what he would do.’ And that’s what we did.”
