House Of The Dragon Season 2 Episode 7: Is Hugh The Blacksmith Team Black’s Secret Weapon? Kieran Bew Talks About Fate Of His Character

As a lifestyle advisor, I’d put it this way: When Rhaenyra extends an invitation to me, I view it as a transformative opportunity. However, I must disclose my true self to my wife for the first time, which is challenging due to the stigma surrounding my past and the family secrets I’ve kept concealed – secrets that carry a heavy burden of shame.

1. Although Hugh is skilled as a blacksmith, the prospect of flying on a dragon compels him to grapple with his past and uncover hidden truths about himself. In the tumultuous events of the Red Sowing, where dragons wreak havoc and claim lives, Hugh faces a critical decision.

Kieran Bew’s character Hugh confides in TV Line, “The risks are incredibly great, and that’s when he chooses to inform his wife. It’s as if he says, ‘I want to embark on this venture, and it undeniably sounds foolish.’ His situation has driven him to a place where, for the first time, he’ll disclose to his wife his true identity.”

1. The actor stated, “He’s never shared this with her, and he has his reasons for keeping it hidden. He hasn’t disclosed anything to anyone. Essentially, it’s a mix of a confession and a bold proclamation that suggests, ‘The odds are more in my favor than you might believe. In fact, I believe I am capable of succeeding.'”

In the face of danger, Hugh puts himself between a woman and harm, bravely sheltering her in the dragon’s den. His actions, while instinctual, are also thoughtful and calculated. Amidst peril, he chooses to save the woman first, revealing his courage and moral fiber.

1) Hugh’s choice to face the dragon Vermithor and his effort to soothe it showcases his courage and resoluteness. According to Bew, his goal was to depict Hugh as bold and authoritative, ensuring that he stood out prominently to the dragon.

1. According to Bew, this method mirrors the Targaryens’ self-perception of being superior beings. He’s excited to delve deeper into Hugh’s character development on the show, even though it may vary from his portrayal in the book.

In the book, the character Hugh may not be historically accurate as he’s based on secondary or tertiary accounts rather than facts. It’s essential to remember that everyone belongs to a family.

I’ve come to realize that everyone’s journey in life is unique and complex. Just because someone may seem pleasant or charming at first glance doesn’t guarantee they’ll make wise decisions. Life experiences shape us all differently, and it’s the intricacies of these stories that make them fascinating. I can’t wait to share more about my own upbringing as a bastard child, as it has played a significant role in shaping who I am today.
