House of the Dragon: Eve Best’s Rhaenys Would Have Been Westeros' Greatest Leader

Eve Best is an acting ace. She’s got loads of impressive screen credits to her name and is a theater legend with two Tony Award nominations, a Drama Desk Award win and a Laurence Olivier Award win as well. Now she’s an absolute force on HBO’s House of the Dragon. It probably goes without saying, she’s always been a dream guest for Collider Ladies Night, but a recent Ladies Night guest skyrocketed Best to being a top priority. While chatting with Jessica Gunning for Baby Reindeer, a performance that appears to have put her on the path to snagging an Emmy nomination, Gunning pinpointed an actor who made a major impression on her during the early days of her career. That actor? Eve Best. Soon after chatting with Gunning, interview opportunities for House of the Dragon Season 2 popped up, and I jumped on it.
Best plays Rhaenys, the Queen Who Never Was, in the Game of Thrones prequel series. Despite having a number of qualities that’d make her an ideal leader, Rhaenys was passed over to succeed King Jaehaerys I for being a woman. She eventually comes to terms with the decision and attempts to serve Westeros valiantly as a dragon rider and as the wife of Lord Corlys Velaryon of Driftmark (Steve Toussaint). Despite Viserys (Paddy Considine) naming Rhaenyra (Emma D’Arcy) his heir, Aegon II (Tom Glynn-Carney) takes the throne, solidifying the stark divide between the Greens, those who support Aegon, and the Blacks, those who continue to back Rhaenyra’s claim. As a member of Team Black, Rhaenys begins Season 2 doing what she can to keep her side safe while strategizing for all-out war.
With House of the Dragon Season 2 kicking off its highly anticipated run on Sunday, June 16, I recently sat down with Best for a Ladies Night conversation to discuss how she’s honed her craft over the years, and Rhaenys’ approach to being a strong leader with war brewing in Westeros.

It's your turn now! Who do you think would make the best ruler of Westeros in House of the Dragon? Are you going with Eve Best's Rhaenys or someone else?

Wow I never saw that I would ever hear or see someone have the same opinion of Stockard Channing in Grease that I have haha. I love every character in grease, but Rizzo was always the character that I was drawn to the most. She was transcendent in that role.

I get what she's saying about Rhaenys's floor-busting scene and I love what she's saying about restraint. But I also think, "Yeah, but Rhaenys DID certainly kill a bunch of other people in that demonstration 🤔..."

@adekunlejosiah2939 10 дней назад

I think the point of that scene was to show that dragons are kind of a nuclear weapon...viserys was wise to be wary of them.

@quietautumn987 10 дней назад

Lots of respect for Eve but talking about ultimate compassion and kindness in the context of the scene when Rhaenys killed probably dozens of smallfolk? Maybe because Eve doesn't watch the show she doesn't even know what it looked like with all the effects?

@GeeNoniGee 10 дней назад

The question was about how Rhaenys felt about sparing her family who imprisoned her, not how bad she felt about the collateral damage, I think.

@adrianarivera9392 9 дней назад

I love that you’re asking an actress about a fictional character’s life. I think you should stop watching a FICTIONAL show about monarchs and start watching shows about small folks coz you seem to be oblivious about what House of the Dragon is.

Another Actress. who hates Horror movies. Wow. I bet Perry didn't see it coming... Let it go, Perri.

@PerriNemiroff 10 дней назад

Every single time someone rolls this question, I think of you 😉 It's always going to be a priority, one, because a shared love of horror makes me happy and, two, because if someone thinks an entire genre is not for them, I enjoy trying to find the movie that'll surprise them and give them a way in. (And I appreciate when others do that for me as well with genres I'm not super into!)

@AllmondISP 10 дней назад

@@PerriNemiroff You know you can always bring the horror topic during the natural conversation between you and your guest, right? espacially if your guest came to promote a horror project she's in, or... she been in one in the past. It so easy. You don't need it to be on those 8 random question.. I think it's such a superfluous question for those 8 random question. I know you can come up with better question. a fresh question instead. I believe in you. Just think about it. PS I'm ready to bet none of your guests on "Ladies Night", who told you they hate horror movies bother watching the movie(s) you recomanded them.

Since Eve's swan song comes to a fiery yet ill-fated end in season 2, it is in the books. It's another underrated, but a great show beckons her sublime talents and foxy charisma. Interview with the Vampire seasons 3 and 4 can have her play Lestat's mother/ fledgling Gabrielle de Lioncourt. Eve Best was born for built for this role her energy will match Sam Ried's energy. The permutations with both of them on the screen will be quite palpable and intense.
