HouseOfTheDragon star Fabien Frankel reveals how much prep work went into his big episode 4 sex scene: 'It was something we talked about over seven months.'
With the moment being key for the show's story, House of the Dragon star Fabien Frankel opens up his extensive preparation for his sex scene in the Game of Thrones prequel. Frankel portrays the honorable Ser Criston Cole, a member of the Kingsguard whose primary job is to ensure the safety of Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen. Hand-picked by the Princess herself, Cole and Rhaenyra have grown close as House of the Dragon has progressed.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY It did not take long for romance to blossom between the young characters. In House of the Dragon episode 4, Rhaenyra's uncle, Daemon Targaryen, took her into the underbelly of King's Landing to explore the lives of common folk. Inside a brothel, he convinced her that, as heir to the Iron Throne, she could do anything she desires. Upon returning to the Red Keep, she seduces Ser Criston, resulting in an intimate sex scene between the pair.
It was something we talked about over seven months. It was one of the first things I was very keen to talk about. We were incredibly fortunate that episode 4 was directed by Clare Kilner, who I think is one of the great TV directors working today. The big thing for me was about it not feeling like another gratuitous, sweat-glistening-off-their-back sex scene, 'cause it's just not like that. Anyone who's ever had sex will tell you sex ain't that beautiful.
The portrayal of Ser Criston and Rhaenyra's House of the Dragon sex scene ended up serving the show both visually and narratively, as it was not only portrayed in a way that helped to represent the youth of both characters, but also avoided gratuity per Frankel's input.
Fabien Frankel's dedication to Ser Criston and Rhaenyra's House of the Dragon episode 4 sex scene turned out to be of primary importance to the show. If it hadn't been displayed the way it was, the impact of what's happened as a result may not have packed as big a punch. The importance of Ser Criston and Rhaenyra's affair also shows how House of the Dragon uses sex scenes to enhance the story being told instead of displaying them for the sake of nudity.
