In the season 1 finale of HouseOfTheDragon, a key scene featuring Ser Erryk Cargyll (Elliott Tittensor) was actually shot using his brother (Luke Tittensor), who plays his twin, Ser Arryk Cargyll, on the HBO series.
Director Greg Yaitanes reveals that, in the season 1 finale of House of the Dragon, a key scene featuring Ser Erryk Cargyll was shot using the actor who plays his twin brother, Ser Arryk Cargyll. The Cargyll twins are members of the Kingsguard, originating from the small House Cargyll and serving King Viserys with dutiful loyalty. However, following the Targaryen king's death in season 1, episode 9, the brothers are divided by their loyalty to the crown.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Upon arriving at Dragonstone in season 1, episode 10, Ser Erryk confirms his support for Rhaenyra by bestowing upon her Viserys' crown as a token of his loyalty and belief in her role as queen. It's a powerful scene that is soon followed by Rhaenyra's coronation, seating Ser Erryk in a high place of trust among her royal guards and advisors.
"There's that scene, that big scene where Corlys comes down and they're putting the markers on the table and the messenger comes in. It was a shot over two days and then one got COVID. [Elliott] got COVID, so we swapped him out with his brother." Cargyll Brothers' Role In House of the Dragon Mirrors Targaryen Civil War Yaitanes' revelation about the switch in actors for the Cargyll brothers indicates how well-cast both Luke and Elliot Tittensor are in the roles of Arryk and Erryk. To see Luke take on the role of Erryk for one short scene underscores how both actors can portray loyalty to the crown, no matter which crown it is they're being loyal to.
While Yaitanes clarified that the switch in actors was due to one of the twins contracting COVID-19 during filming, Luke's short stint as Erryk helps to underscore the theme of loyalty that has separated the brothers since Viserys' death. The upcoming battle between Erryk and Arryk Cargyll is centered on their dueling commitment to Targaryen rulers that each of them see as fit to sit on the Iron Throne.
