Furthermore, Rhaenyra has been recast with Emma D'Arcy playing the role.

Several fans wondered why Milly Alcock and Emily Carey couldn’t just play the old characters throughout the show.

One reason for the switch is the show required the leads as teens during certain major events in their lives.

Meanwhile, several of the older male characters are still being played by the same actors.
