The actor now stars in the show’s prequel series House of the Dragon as King Viserys I Targaryen alongside Matt Smith and Emma D’Arcy as his siblings.
Paddy Considine has revealed he turned down Game of Thrones without even reading the script.
In a recent appearance with Considine on The Official Game of Thrones Podcast: House of the Dragon, Smith said he sought to make his character, Daemon Targaryen, more “delicate”.
In an interview with The Sunday Times, Considine spoke about receiving the script for Thrones from his agent.
