Rhaenyra Targaryen cannot catch a break. House of the Dragon Season 3 premiered on HBO last night, and didn\u2019t wait long before shocking fans with another death: Rhaenyra\u2019s son, Jacaerys Velaryon (aka Jace), was shot with arrows and drowned\u2014along with his dragon, Vermax.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Variety<\/a>, actor Harry Collett said, \u201cIt was really hard to act dead\u2014it\u2019s actually one of the hardest acting I\u2019ve ever done in my life. It was really fun, but also really challenging trying to keep my eyes open in the water and staying afloat, while also not getting any up my nose. Otherwise, I\u2019d cough, and obviously I\u2019m not dead if I cough. So that was quite challenging.\u201d<\/p>\n

Harry knew Jace\u2019s death was coming, so he was \u201ctaking the days as they come and enjoying myself and just being grateful to be on this show in the first place. When I read Season 2, normally Ryan calls you to tell you what is gonna happen this season. I didn\u2019t get a call, and I was like, \u2018Is he just waiting until like we get to the script read?\u2019 But, no, it got skipped in Season 2, which I\u2019m very grateful for. It\u2019s great that it gets to be the first episode that people see for this season.\u201d<\/p>\n

House of the Dragon airs Sunday nights on HBO and promises to be an explosive season (if you\u2019ve read the source material\u2026you know!).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
