It has long been speculated that we will see young Rhaenyra Targaryen, played by Milly Alcock, again in Season 2 of House of the Dragon. There was a time jump in season one since Rhaenyra was played by another actress. Nevertheless, many fans had suspected that we would see the young dragon rider again in the form of flashbacks in season two. But the actress herself now gives a clear rejection.
Young Rhaenyra does not return
Milly Alcock was actually able to convince many fans in her role as the young dragon rider Rhaenyra Targaryen. And she was also nominated for one or the other prize. That’s why many fans hoped that she would return for a second season. Then of course not in the form of normal scenes, after all Rhaenyra has been embodied by Emma D’Arcy since the time jump in episode six.

The producers have a lot planned for Season 2 of the HBO series House of the Dragon. The same goes for the dragons.
But flashbacks would have been possible, for example. Or dream sequences. Or something else. But no, unfortunately that will not happen. Actress Milly Alcock finds clear words in an interview with Deadline: “No, it’s done”.
“House of the Dragon changed my life”
But the interview isn’t just about her potential return to Westeros. She also talks about the impact the HBO series has had on her and her life: “[House of the Dragon] changed my life very quickly and it will never be the same again. Now I can finally do all the wonderful, amazing things I’ve always wanted to do, and I’m still figuring out what [genau] that is”.
The prequel series to Game of Thrones was definitely a career springboard for the young actress. She also spoke about her great successes at a young age: “Your dreams shouldn’t come true at 21 and 22. It shouldn’t be allowed. I have to pull myself together a little more – I shouldn’t even be unsupervised that young in everyday life.” .
Alcock is currently working on a theatrical production of “The Crucible” and plays one of the leading actresses. And in the future she will definitely be seen in other film and series productions. We still have to wait at least a year for season two of House of the Dragon. But that’s how long you could start a rewatch of Game of Thrones, right? One of the stars from the parent series recently revealed why he can’t do anything with House of the Dragon at the moment.
