· 5 pulledThis was beyond a worst-case scenario for us. We knew something was coming, but not like this.
The moment was so intense on set. Everyone was just silent after they called cut.
Jacaerys' death changes everything for Rhaenyra and for the war. There's no coming back from this.
We've built this relationship between Jace and Rhaena over two seasons, and to see it end this way was devastating to play.
The fans have been so invested in these characters, and I hope they feel the weight of this moment the way we did.
