What role does Matt Smith play in House of the Dragon?
Matt Smith is a well-known English actor who made his television debut in Sally Lockhart’s Mysteries: The Ruby in the Smoke. However, he rose to notoriety when producer Steven Moffat cast him as the eleventh Doctor in the renowned BBC sci-fi adventure series Doctor Who (2005). He featured in 49 episodes of Doctor Who before departing during the series’ historic 50th anniversary year. For his work in the BBC series, Matt Smith was nominated for a National Television Award in the category of Outstanding Drama Performance.

Daemon is a fierce warrior and dragon rider who aims to take his brother’s reign after his death. It is unclear if Daemon is a hero or a villain in the novel, but he is a slightly unstable guy who wields the legendary Valyrian steel blade, Dark Sister.
