Paddy Considine, who plays Viserys on HouseOfTheDragon, revealed George R. R. Martin sent him a message praising his portrayal of the Targaryen King.
House of the Dragon’s new episode ‘Lord of the Tides,’ brings an end to King Viserys’ reign. The entire episode was built around him, his last supper with his family, his standing by his daughter no matter what, his suffering, his belief in the prophecy of Ice and Fire till his last breath, and finally reuniting with his beloved wife Aemma with his final words “my love.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY Viserys in many ways is akin to Ned Stark in the original series, a family man, righteous, and the trouble doesn’t start till he dies.
Viserys had a conscience that never really let him get over the decision that led to Aemma’s death, he also truly loved his first wife and Rhaenyra being an image of her made him make her his heir, and also stand by her till the end of his time. Though he took Alicent as a wife after much prodding by his counsels, the two certainly developed a bond over their children and his failing health.
