'House Of The Dragon' Actor Matt Smith Admits GoT Spin-Off Contains 'Slightly Too Much Sex'

Game of Thrones quickly rose to prominence and continues to have high ratings even now. From 2011 through 2019, with each episode, the show had its audience on the edge. The House of Dragon spin-off of Games Of Throne is now being released, generating the same excitement.

A prequel of GOT, George R. R. Martin's fantasy books Fire and Blood served as the inspiration for the series House of the Dragon. There were a lot of explicit and sexual situations in the book itself. So, it should come as no surprise that the show will also include some heated sequences.

Matt Acknowledged That The Show Has 'Slightly Too Much Sex'

In an interview with Rolling Stone, the actor said, "You do find yourself asking, ¡®Do we need another sex scene?¡¯ And they¡¯re like, ¡®Yeah, we do.¡¯ I guess you have to ask yourself: ¡®What are you doing? Are you representing the books, or are you diluting the books to represent the time (we¡¯re living in)?¡¯ And I actually think it¡¯s your job to represent the books truthfully and honestly, as they were written.¡±

House Of The Dragon

The creators of House of the Dragon have already stated that they will exercise caution this time around when depicting non-consensual graphic sequences on the show.

House Of The Dragon's plot will take an account of the Targaryen civil war, which occurred roughly 300 years before the events in Game of Thrones and will stream on HBO.
