Gayle Rankin as Alys Rivers in House of the Dragon
This article covers a developing story. Continue to check back with us as we will be adding more information as it becomes available. The Big Picture Fans of the House of the Dragon spotted a new mysterious character in Harrenhal played by Gayle Rankin.
"On House of the Dragon, we have dragons, obviously, but she's the first entry point to that world of magic," Rankin says of her character. Game of Thrones fans would remember the Red Priestess Melisandre and woods witch Maggy the Frog changing the tides with their powers in the original show. But seems like Alys Rivers is going to top them as the actor reveals that Alys' nickname, "the Witch Queen of Harrenhal" from the Fire and Blood books, stuck with her.
Alys and Daemon Will Share a Slow Burn Dynamic Close Speaking of her character Ranking tells "This person can tell the future, basically," Further elaborating that she's someone who has all of this power and has been around for potentially 400 years. “How do we make her a person with a beating heart and wants and desires? I hope that's felt inside of our exploration with her.
With the visions and voices that Daemon gets in Harrenhal coupled with his vulnerabilities back home, it looks like he’s going to take the Witch Queen’s counsel in the upcoming war, but at what cost? Rankin teases, "What's interesting is, what does Alys want from Daemon and vice versa? What are they learning from each other? There's clearly a match happening here.
