Milly Alcock, the actress who plays Rhaenyra Targaryen in Game of Thrones House of the Dragon, said nude extras were 69’ing each other for 12 HOURS during filming of the brothel scene
After reading that title, I just want to be clear on the fact that the last time I wrote an article about Game of Thrones and people having public sex on the set of Kings Landing that it went semi-viral, so before you get up in arms about another Game of Thrones sex blog, there’s always a reason behind the madness.
Also, if you haven’t watched the new spinoff of Game of Thrones, House of Dragon, you definitely are missing out. It throws you right back into the world of GOT roughly 150 years before the last series and focuses primarily on House Targaryen.
The new series has been fantastic through four episodes.
That brings us to last Sunday’s fourth episode, where Game of Thrones, no strangers to wild sex scenes and even incest, had their teen Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen (Milly Alcock) and her uncle Daemon Targaryen (Matt Smith) had a make-out scene in the middle of a crowded brothel.
Rhaenyra and Daemon Targaryen Brothel Scene Game of Thrones House of the Dragon
Again, if you watch Game of Thrones, the incest scenes really won’t catch you off guard and are somewhat standard throughout both series. The reason why this particular clip has gone mega-viral over the past week on social media is because Milly Alcock told the New York Post that the extras in the brothel were 69’ing for 12 HOURS while they were filming the scene.
NY Post- In Sunday night’s fourth episode of the “Game of Thrones” spinoff “House of the Dragon,” teen Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen (Milly Alcock) and her uncle Daemon Targaryen (Matt Smith) have an incestuous steamy make-out in the middle of a crowded brothel. Although the scene is bound to raise eyebrows among viewers, Aussie actress Alcock, 22, told The Post that it wasn’t awkward to film.
“No, strangely enough. [Matt Smith and I] were just kind of mates. So, it was quite comfortable,” Alcock said about filming the scene with Smith, 39. “We had an intimacy coordinator, and we worked with her through the rehearsal process and blocked it out months before.”
“There were extras who we had just met who were like, 69-ing for 12 hours,” she added. “It’s pretty gnarly. We felt pretty overdressed, because everyone else was nude.”
For our older audience on Facebook, this would be a good time to exit the article. The last Kings Landing post brought us several DMs of disgusted parents and requested we remove the post immediately because of my vulgar writing.
I declined their suggestion. You can read the post here.
Okay so back to the Alcock quote. First, is she using “gnarly” to describe the 12-hour 69’ing in a good way? I haven’t heard anyone use that on a positive note since the 90’s so I’m going to have to go with no. Plus she followed up with the fact that her and Matt Smith were both “pretty over dressed” while the rest of the room was basically having a gigantic 69 orgy around them.
It must be wild to reach out for a role in Game of Thrones and then find out that you’ve been casted as an extra and that extra role is actually one of the people in the brothel who will all be completely naked and 69’ing each other for 12+ hours while the princess in the show is making out with her uncle.
Whatever it takes though I guess, right?
Still, I would assume that Alcock meant the scene took 12 hours to film and while filming the extras were 69’ing. There’s no possible way that this was a consecutive 12 hours because that would be a daunting task for anyone. I’m not going to have a sex talk or draw a diagram for anyone who doesn’t know what 69’ing is. Google it if you want, but the point remains that doing any type of sexual activity, including 69’ing, obviously, for 12 hours would be extremely difficult.
It is however, pretty cool how much time and effort everyone put it to get the scene shot and finalized. I applaud any extra that can walk on to the set of Game of Thrones, strip down, and basically have sex while an entire cast and crew are watching you.
Give them all Emmy’s, assuming those award shows still happen? I honestly have no idea.
