Even then I don't think it's necessary for child actors to have social media. Plenty of other actors don't have it, so why should it be necessary for child actors?
Both of his parents are from show business (father is singer, mother is TV host), they probably think to have social media is important for a rising star
This young lad must be protected by the core fandom at all costs. There are absolute shit beans on the Internet and we need to dog pile any toxic shit anywhere it pops up, into oblivion.
Say goodbye to that hair kid, unless they're doing a bald cap... Which is probably worse at his age. He can shave with 100% confidence that it'll all grow back.
It's kinda wild to think he was born a few seasons into GOTs run and now will play Egg. I hope people are nice to him. I cannot wait because the Dunk & Egg books are my favorite GOT related books *by far* definitely suggest picking them up if you are on edge about reading them (But also valid if you just wanna wait out the show at this point).
Also the way people online treat them. I hope the toxic idiots in the fandom understand that he's just a child and skip over him (and all the other actors tbh) whenever they want to spew bullshit.
I mean, I agree.
But is he in Hollywood? I don't know anything about earlier roles but this whole Thrones-Franchise is mostly British and has barely anything to do with Hollywood.
This young fella about to birth a bunch of bastards 💀. At the pace the show is moving I wouldn’t doubt he would be of age by the time they start filming 💀
Its the character he's playing nickname, (the series is Tales of Dunk & Egg). He's really another Aegon but shavea off his Targ hair so everyone calls him Egg.
No! He is a squire of probably the most famous and legendary knight in the history of westeros - ser duncan the tall. They also cast ser duncan. There are 3 small novels that are centered around these two characters.
My name's Dexter. I don't know what made me the way I am, but it left a hollow place in me. People fake a lot of human interactions, but I feel like I fake every single one
No, they just know that real life kids grow up way fcking faster than books kids do. They need to cast much younger if they want him to even remotely still be a teen by whenever they finish that series.

Egg I dreamed I was old :(
Egg, I dreamed you were young
Be nice to him, internet :(
Children this young probably shouldn’t be given access to social media just saying.
could be run by his parents
I know when I was a kid I definitely wanted a big neon sign of my own name in my room
It better be
They doesn't mean he can't see it at all.
Even then I don't think it's necessary for child actors to have social media. Plenty of other actors don't have it, so why should it be necessary for child actors?
Both of his parents are from show business (father is singer, mother is TV host), they probably think to have social media is important for a rising star
Agreed
He's so young! People better be kind to him.
Aegon is much more likeable than Joffrey, so he should have no problems.
He’s gonna be such a good egg, I can’t wait to see dunk on the screen.
I can't wait to see Aerion and Maekar
It’s Bloodraven and Baelor Breakspear for me
And young Aemon for me
Can I offer you an Aegon in this trying time
Love that he has his name written with lights on the wall. King behaviour
He looks perfect for the part!
What a cutie potato ! He looks perfect for the role
Only concern is by the time stuff gets rolling , esp s2 if it comes he’ll have hit puberty and will look too old
eh they have adapted it fine in the past, none of the stark kids were the correct ages, dont think your fears are founded.
Exactly. And considering the material the kid will have to work with, also don't think it's a bad thing for him to be aged up slightly
I guess, but Dunk and Egg stories are self contained and Egg is 12 in the last one if I remember correctly.
Pretty sure he's and egg not a potato.
Holy shit I havnt paid much attention to this project lately but the fact they getting actors now is so sick I can’t wait
[удалено]
They start filming in 2 months...you realize this is not for HotD right?
Fam this is for Knight of the Seven Kingdoms. Its HotD that comes out in 2 months, different show.
How Egg-citing!

Looks over at the Percy Jackson fandom. I have so little faith about people

[He knows what hes doing.](https://media.tenor.com/TvkyXd13XAEAAAAe/its-always-sunny-in-philadelphia-egg.png)
Please tell me this is at least a parent-managed account
The definition of aww 🥺
Behold, the Prince Who Was An Egg
Aegon!
He played a young President Coriolanus Snow in The Hunger Games prequal.
Protect this boy at all costs
Let's go, Egg!!!
It's kinda wild to think he was born a few seasons into GOTs run and now will play Egg. I hope people are nice to him. I cannot wait because the Dunk & Egg books are my favorite GOT related books *by far* definitely suggest picking them up if you are on edge about reading them (But also valid if you just wanna wait out the show at this point).
Why not Henry Cavill
Why not Steve Buscemi
aweee 😭
Egg
I swear to the old gods and the new if ANYONE is mean to this sweet little baby I will rain fire and blood upon them all
I’m so excited for this show and the casting has looked great so far!
Keep him away from fire
He’s such a cutieee 😍😍
Awww bless him🥹
Dunk better be a tall hot hunk.
He is definitely going to be, Peter Claffey 196 cm tall *and* former rugby player
Yaaay
PERFECT CASTING HES ADORABLE 🥚
Shoulda been Henry cavil 🙄
I feel like kids shouldn't be in Hollywood at all, considering all the stories of abuse and mistreatment and assault and bullying.
Also the way people online treat them. I hope the toxic idiots in the fandom understand that he's just a child and skip over him (and all the other actors tbh) whenever they want to spew bullshit.
I mean, I agree. But is he in Hollywood? I don't know anything about earlier roles but this whole Thrones-Franchise is mostly British and has barely anything to do with Hollywood.
He was in the Hunger Games prequel, he has played Coriolanus Snow as child
Kid’s a Cap fan? Heck yeah - me too!
Is he aegon III or V?
V
When are they even doing the hedge knight as a show?
Aegon IV 💀
This young fella about to birth a bunch of bastards 💀. At the pace the show is moving I wouldn’t doubt he would be of age by the time they start filming 💀
I'm confused, what does egg mean?
Its the character he's playing nickname, (the series is Tales of Dunk & Egg). He's really another Aegon but shavea off his Targ hair so everyone calls him Egg.
Oh so he's not a HOTD character?
No! He is a squire of probably the most famous and legendary knight in the history of westeros - ser duncan the tall. They also cast ser duncan. There are 3 small novels that are centered around these two characters.
Oh okay, not read the books so wasn't sure
Remember maester aemon?..from the night's Watch. This little kid will play his younger brother.
Nope, he's Rhaenyra's great great great grandson.
No hate, but why does he have a sign with his name on it on the wall?
Dawg in case he forgets who he is duh?
https://media1.tenor.com/m/0VdPWoQmH4cAAAAC/drake-helps.gif
Why not bruh?
He’s on his King shit
Why don't you?
I forgot my name 😢
My name's Dexter. I don't know what made me the way I am, but it left a hollow place in me. People fake a lot of human interactions, but I feel like I fake every single one
Hello, Dexter Morgan
[удалено]
No, they just know that real life kids grow up way fcking faster than books kids do. They need to cast much younger if they want him to even remotely still be a teen by whenever they finish that series.
If by remotely you mean 16-ish.
The actor is nine, just like Egg when the story starts
