Absolute legend. He made a one-note character from the Books into one of the best characters on TV.
For real! He was basically a footnote in that part of Fire and Blood. Paddy brought him to life and gave so much more. Even GRRM said he wants to rewrite that part of the book, because he portrayed it so perfectly. If he doesn't win an Emmy for this, to quote Corlys, "This is an absurdity."
Paddy made my cold, dead heart cry for days and that's a rare thing for me in shows. The only other shows that made me cry are Haunting of Hill House and Haunting of Bly Manor. And now House of The Dragon. I guess if a show has a house in it, I can expect that I'll probably cry.
@@JamieBarrington
tbh those are some hard hitters in terms of feels, especially Bly. their story kills me.
@@Ziaotic Bly Manor absolutely destroyed my heart. I cried for an hour after it ended. It was such a beautiful Gothic romance.
@@JamieBarrington
pure pain. and your name is Jamie too? i know you were a wreck at that ending
@@Ziaotic OMG, yes! It was like a double stake to the heart, lol
Paddy Considine, you had me a 48 year old man crying in my seat in your last episode. That final walk to the Iron Throne was everything. Bravo! 😭👏👏👏
The last episode proved that King Viserys was a fookin' badass! Such an excellent performance by Paddy. He truly deserves an Emmy.
Viserys is probably my favourite character in all of GOT/HOTD. Paddy did an immense job.
Goes to show that there are so many amazing actors out there who are just waiting for a big role. I always enjoyed him in movies like Hot Fuzz, but it's great to see him in such a role.
If you haven’t seen it (not many have as it’s a small Indy British film) check out a film named ‘Dead Mans Shoes’
It’s quite old now, but is the film that Paddy fully shines in.
It’s a wicked little independent film.
I love how Paddy is so passionate about Viserys. There are scenes where you think Viserys is not being a strong king, however, there is the 'dragon' in him that gets unleashed when he is pushed too hard and we have all seen it, and it is quite frightening, I will admit. But I think he is trying his best to make sure everyone is happy, but it doesn't work. By trying to make sure everyone is happy, he will still upset others.
He is still a Targaryen that only appears when anger overtakes him, but I guess he us still unlike a typical Targaryen that he is not quick to temper.
Great interview. I’m so glad I clicked on it. What a nice wealth of information about king V. I disliked the character at first cuz he wasn’t a brut like Robert. Then I realized he does have a backbone after all. I grew to like his character more and more as the plot unraveled. Episode 8 was so compelling. He played that living rotting corpse so well. Marvelous filmmaking. Bravo 👏 Paddy . Salute 🫡
I agree with him completely. I never bought the idea that Viserys was "weak." He was just an empathetic, moral man in a screwed up and corrupt world.
Westeros is not that bad of a world, most common people are honest and hardworking who just want to get by in life, it is just people at the top that do selfish, stupid stuff and destroy everything including themselves
I saw the episode 8 as sort of a tribute, a memorial to all the people who have died from slow, horrible illnesses. My mother gradually faded away from cancer at home. Now I see that was the main idea for the character development, and I just want to congratulate Paddy for the outstanding work. He has achieved so much in only 8 episodes, whereas some characters are built over the years and seasons for the same effect on audience. Masterfully well-done!
episode 8 will probably remain my favourite of the season. that family meal was the saddest and one of the best scenes from both game of thrones and house of the dragon.
Probably my favourite episode out of the two series. I'm a sucker for character studies and actors just getting the chance to give performances that haunt you. They did so well to make you realise just how strong Viserys is and how unravelled the entire situation had become against what he wanted. He did what he could in his own way, like all characters, good and bad, wrong and right. Ultimately he love he has for his daughter and broken heart he carries are the thing that makes him so relative to an audience.
After that last episode, with Viserys walking through length of the throne room and taking the throne (that's all I'll say to avoid spoilers), there is zero doubt that Paddy deserves some serious awards recognition. He was absolutely amazing in HotD.
If this guy does not win a Emmy for this character its a crime, his performance in Ep 8 was simple marvelous.
See. THIS is what sets amazing actors apart from the others. Paddy was 100% in on Viserys and cared about him and clearly put so much into him. It was a treat to hear his passion about this role. You can see why his character was so beloved. Can't wait to see him in more stuff.
The way Paddy described Viserys is exactly what I took from the character. Paddy was incredible and unforgettable as one of the most iconic characters in the House of the Dragon show.
A great great actor that understood his character profoundly .Kudos Paddy you deserve all the rewards for this.
This man put everything he had into this role, and emotionally affected a lot of us. Truly Emmy worthy. I will remember this character forever now because of Paddy. Also, it goes to show what good actors can do with a bit of creative freedom.
So happy to see Paddy get the recognition he deserves. Every single second he was on-screen as Viserys was compelling.
Give Paddy his Emmy!
Paddy's had a long career but this is his defining performance. The man absolutely slayed this role and should at minimum be nominated (if not win) this year's Emmy.
He speaks his heart.
Great indepth interview. He actually made me cry a bit when he said he imagines Viserys seeing Aemma when he dies. I will think of it when I watch the scene and I already know it’s going to be heartbreaking 😢
Viserys is definitely one of my favourite characters in the franchise thanks to how well Paddy portrays him!
"My Love" 😢
I cried.
He is well prepared for interview . And his performance in episode 8 is epic i cried constantly seeing viserys on pain. Love him should win an emmy
Great interview, well prepared and actually listening back the answers. I love how Paddy is so honest and open about himself and how much he brings into characters. He made Viserys one of my favorite characters of all this franchise.
This is a scripted interview. The questions are more from Paddy so we can get an indepth view of the character. I personly love this type of interview..... It gives us a deeper insite to the craft of a talented actor. Sorry the pritty blonde did not have much to do with this interview.
What an amazing actor and person. I respect and appreciate him so much more than I already did!! His creativity really shows. 💚
He used his own personal tragic life experiences and losses with his parents to further shape his own Viserys.
I feel so bad he watched his parents go through what they did. 🥺
It shows unwavering strength to use his personal anguish and pain in his work. Grief never leaves you, it's always fucking there, but to dredge it up and bring it to the surface to help the audience better understand Viserys, just wow!! Even with the New York artist that he liked to create his vision of Viserys face at the end.
I'm in awe and think it was very spot on to stand up and tell the director how it was crucial for him to show that Viserys was still a dragon deep down.
I've seen actors talk about how they personally relate and shape characters they are playing. But to me, this is on a whole other level. 🖤
Tyvm for the interview. I must admit that in the beginning I viewed Viserys as a weak king up until about mid way thru the season and then I finally got the Ah Ha moment of what he really is as Paddy explained. At that point he really won me over and it made watching him whither away very hard to watch. So glad to see Paddy in good health/spirits he nailed that role so well. I really wish we had more time w/ Viserys. He truly is the strongest of the Dragons.
Love the character Viserys, and after this interview I absolutely love Paddy ! What a way of expressing himself and answering every question. Such an amazing actor foreal. Going to miss him #LongLiveTheKing
Absolutely LOVE him as a Person and Viserys. He will be missed SO much! And He needs to win an Emmy!!!
I had no idea what a lovely talented man he is until this show. I’m a new fan. Great work.
Emmy for Paddy.
Paddy is a class act and he's brilliant in this show..I love how strong the father and daughter bond is between them two.. So shocking to see that handsome face falling off piece by piece- you can nearly feel the pain from just looking at it! Lol
I love his performance, thanks Paddy, We'll miss you in HotD.
What an actor.. The ability to reflect ones own life experience and be so believable in the role.. amazing.
Viserys the Peaceful is a great king to me. Rarely has Westeros seen a king so joyful and cool-tempered.
So glad won't have to wait for the Emmy's which is separate next year. The Golden GLOBES WILL air in January can't wait to see Paddy get his award
I know what he means about people saying he was weak. I thought the same. But after seeing his final acts in his final moments, suddenly what I've always perceived as weak now suddenly is understood as love..as proceeding with the utmost caution because he knows what is at stake and what is to come.. and most of all the courage to move forward against all odds.
And I'm not alone in this sentiment, a lot of people have changed their opinion on Paddy after his last episode. When he stepped into that Throne room and turned those smug Hightower smiles upside down... that was powerful.
These are a really rich resource for historians, interested students of the craft, ect
Paddy did this role so right, there's like genetic connections or something 🤔 amazing 👏
Great interview. Paddy absolutely crushed it in his acting role as Viserys. He deserves some recognition & some awards. I think Ep8 really brought all his previous work together & the throne room scene really allowed Paddy to shine. It was so powerful & moving. As soon as the throne room went silent, the doors opening & the King’s Guard knight started bellowing his titles: “King Viserys of House Targaryen. The first of his name. King of the Andals, and the Rhoynar, and the First Men. Lord of the Seven Kingdoms. Protector of the Realm” as King Viserys walked in weakened but like a boss, he showed he was a tough mofo & a legend. That should make anyone even the most stoic person a bit teary eyed. Viserys did that walk which required Herculean effort in his frail state was done purely on love & will.
Give this man an Emmy!
My favorite character so far deserves all the awards.
I could listen to and look at Paddy all day ^^
Thank you for the wonderful indepth interview!
Me too, I feel guilty because he's married, lol
@@Jamie-hh5bj He was married in 2002 and has known his wife since he was 18. Wow. Can't wait to see his future projects
I wish he wins an award for his role in the show.
The Baddy Paddy! Great season.
One of the best interviews I’ve ever seen! Loved how much thought Paddy put into Viserys
Paddy Considine is the best actor in House of the dragon. He deserves a Grammy, thank you Paddy, you're amazing!
Do you mean Emmy?
Only wrong answers please.. lesss goo🤟🏽
He has a band, so I guess a Grammy isn't entirely out of the question.
I'm going to miss him so much. Daemon and Aemond were my favorite characters in the book, but I never imagined Viserys to join the fold. Paddy gave much more than George Martin wrote and that's so impressive! Give that precious man an Emmy already and let us be done with it
@@janeathome6643 Yes but the clip/ interview is about his amazing acting role 😎😜😎
He needs a damn Emmy
I was surprised that Paddy took the role at first, seemed a bit commercial and high profile for him, but now I totally get it. It’s a bit king Lear, a bit of Citizen Kane, a bit of American Beauty.
When I watched ep 7 with the entire family fight after aemon got stabbed in the eye and the first thing I said when it was over that it was like watching a shakespeare play of Macbeth or hamlet its was epic and amazing! Such nuance and even restraint inthe actors which added such gravity and electricity in the scene. Every time I watch the scene I pick up on something different. A master class in tv making!!
4:04 viserys is not weak, he is strong enough to keep the peace even when his ego says otherwise.
What an actor !!! ♥️
My King Viserys! 👑❤️
That was brilliant. We love Viserys because Paddy loves Viserys and he showed it. I think this might be one of the best interviews I've ever seen. It was fascinating. 😀
omg this is SSOOOOO much better than the American interviewers; great questions!
You were brilliant in this role. When Visery’s died your portrayal brought me to tears.
He was outstanding in that last episode!
Really loved his part as viserys he was epic and I will remember his character far into the future. You killed it man
In essence,
Rhaenyra/Alicent/Otto play the game of thrones.
Viserys plays the song of ice and fire.
Paddy deserves an Emmy
I just can´t believe this man brought me to tears twice in a week. This is a very brave interview. Great actor. I'm speechless.
Paddy just did an incredible job as the King!
Paddy as viserys is some of the finessed acting I’ve ever seen. You made the first season amazing mate
Really good interview and he really study his character. Viserys is one of my top 3 favorite caracter of the both shows
Viserys Targaryen did NOTHING wrong
Episode 8 was one of the best episodes I've ever seen. King Viserys really was an amazing character thanks to Paddy.
One of the best Rulers of King's Landing, instead of his weakness trying to please everyone 'round him, he could lead a Nation without wars. Respect to Paddy who could perform a great Vyseris for us
I can't believe that's viserys. Super detailed actor.
I love that all these smaller channels are getting great interviews with the actors and creators of the show, and all the bigger channels are seething about it lol
Paddy's a legend.
What Paddy did with Viserys is extraordinary. Truly amazing performance.
An intelligent interview thanks this was awesome
Next episode won't be the same without him. Great work, Paddy!
I hope Paddy gets the awards he deserves
Really great interview! Enjoyed listening a lot to how Paddy interpreted and constructed character of Viserys - he brought forth so much depth to the character.
Great interview, and an even greater insight into the character of Visery’s from the man himself. Paddy was outstanding in that role.
What an awesome guy. I really enjoyed this interview and his explanation on his character's decisions, feelings, etc.
He managed to pull a Ned Stark.
He’s gonna be another guy we think of the duration of the series even though they were only in one season.
Long live the King!
Paddy was so so good in this ❤
Legendary performance
Wow! I didn't know the actor playing Viserys is super sexy!! 😏😏 I mean, excellent actor and I thought Sunday's episode was incredible.
Give this man an Emmy!! Seeing him wilt away touched cut me so deep
Paddy deserves an emmy for his performance.
I'm not so sure Daemon would have laughed him out of the room. It would have tickled his sense of Targaryen exceptionalism and Targaryen destiny.
Brilliant performance Paddy! Emmy Emmy Emmy
Well done Sir Paddy !! You are very in tune with the character and I think the fans felt it. Very well done 👏
Wow, this is an amazing and great interview. Well done!
20:00 and so he won every accolade.
28:05 Standing ovation. 👏👏👏👏
i assume Mara Webster is the woman we're seeing here conducting the interview? She did a fantastic job, Paddy likewise was incredible .
Awesome interview, great series!
Phenomenal performance from Paddy Considine, brought a completely new depth to the character
Incoming (and well deserved) awards for our sweet potato, Paddy! 🏆 I adore him so much.
Paddy made Viserys more alive than the Book-Version.
Well done ser, well done.
When youre creating a character, living in a world of fantasy, As an actor to make it relatable, its hard. He does this brilliantly, by doing the work. Talking about real world issues, like illegal wars, political support and divisions, family. This fact that we remember people in reality that are just plain bad, because its more fun to watch a train wreck than to see the kind, good things we do in the world, is disappointing as a society, but true. We hope to remember more of the Viserys in this world than the Joffreys and Otto's.
Just gonna add the fact that he mentions 'duty' several times is something on pointe. In reality, knowing that Queen ElizabethII passed recently, she mentioned the importance of duty to the crown to the nation, regardless of the actual power she had. It is a Symbol and the symbol and how its viewed around the world or "realm" can be powerful.
@In Creative Company what an amazing intimate interview and what an amazing MAN Mr. Constantine is.
This guy should win avary award for HotD
Such an excellent job by Paddy Considine! Absolutely phenomenal work!
Super great questions!
Holy shit. I was like who is this guy. And his portrayal of this character culminated in the masterpiece of episode 8, simply amazing. Bravo, sir. The awards season beckons.
Super interview well done!
GREAT interview! And he is 100% right the people who call him 'weak' or say he was 'bowing' to the princess... that's just pure sexism and machismo straight up.
He was incredible
Wow amazing insight into viserys from paddy! Great interview
Great interview. Although, I think we can all agreee, we missed Jimmy Fallon randomly laughing.
Paddy took a forgettable character and turned him into a memorable one. What acting man. RIP
Outstanding performance.
Huge fan from Nepal paddy come to visit Nepal ...what a actor...
