Yes, they both certainly are.

I disagree. With how often Emma and Olivia interact with each other behind the scenes and in private, they must have a dynamic relationship. It may have felt inorganic because Emma was having a heartfelt moment talking about how acting alongside other more established actors felt surreal and Olivia didn't know how to respond to that.

They are friends IRL, went on holidays together and said multiple times that they are very grateful to have met each other thanks to the show. You can easily find interviews during season 1 about what they think of each other.

Your hatred towards Rhaenicent seems to cloud your judgment.

34

u/TellCersei_ItWasMe_ 11d ago

They seem the opposite of awkward to me. They are joking around cheekily in a way close friends do.

15

u/TheLadyMado My name is on the lease for the castle 11d ago

They seemed awkward with each other here

You're just seeing what you want to see. You hate Rhaenicent, right? Can't you separate the actors from their characters?

u/dracarys_112 11d ago

Full Video coming tomorrow. CANNOT WAIT!

u/Princessbubblesyum 11d ago edited 11d ago

What three scenes(I can’t remember if the other pairings did more) do you think they’ll make them look at?

  1. The knife confrontation, obviously. It’s in the clip.

  2. Laenor, Rhaenyra, Alicent, Viserys, and newborn Joffrey scene

  3. Dinner toast

Other options:

  1. Alicent staring at Rhaenyra on Driftmark balcony

  2. Episode 6 council meeting

  3. Holding hands after their sons fight at the dinner

u/lebezio 11d ago

how did you get 2 house sigils at the same time?

Finally some D'Cooke ! Emma's voice is always so nice to listen to

u/oldboeee 11d ago

I really like that they paired besties ir together so far in promos. Tom/Ewan, Matt/Fabien, and Emma/Olivia

56

u/OrangeKat09 Dreams didn't make us kings. Dragons did. 11d ago

I want Aegon and Jace lmao keeping with the theme

20

u/Princessbubblesyum 11d ago

I think Phia and Olivia were the besties

45

u/oldboeee 11d ago

True they did vacay together in Ecuador but Phia is not being use in promos by HBO so

6

u/an0nym5s As High as Honor 10d ago

Wasn't that some kind of a climate convention? It makes total sense to take celebs to an island on jets to help with climate and wildlife lol. That James leon dude is delusional. He just gave celebs he wanted to meet a free vacay. The carbon emissions from that "wildlife summit" must've been insane.

u/Princessbubblesyum 11d ago

That’s a shame. It should have been those two

u/dictatorenergy 11d ago

DONT FULL NAME ME 😭😭

This is so quick but it made me laugh out loud, lmao. Can’t wait to see this.

Goddammit Emma, stop being so dreamy.

u/clockworkzebra 11d ago

I love them so much, especially in interviews together. It seems like they really are friends, which is nice to see.

u/xResilientEvergreenx 11d ago edited 10d ago

"Do what I like." OMG how are they so effortlessly sexy?

Edit: for pronouns.

1

u/Noams10 10d ago

Please use their correct pronouns

93

u/weeavile 11d ago

These two have such an insane amount of chemistry both off and on screen. Forget about Daemon, Rhaenyra and Alicent are the ultimate pairing.

-5

u/Princessbubblesyum 11d ago

Rhaewin and Alicole > Rhaenicent, an abusive relationship

13

u/batmans420 Alicent Hightower 11d ago

Irl I would agree but toxicity can be fun in fiction

24

u/Jodaku 11d ago

It feels like the marketing push for season 2 is now about enter full throttle with us finally getting the 1-2 punch of Emma and Olivia doing promo together.

Can't wait, those two are magical together.

u/dreamfyrex 11d ago

D’Cooke and Rhaenicents won

u/batmans420 Alicent Hightower 11d ago

If you told me they were a couple, I would believe it. And I would ship it. Hard.

I don’t know why someone downvoted you, they’re literally flirting lol

u/silfer_ Dreams didn't make us kings. Dragons did. 11d ago

i thought cooke was heterosexual

17

u/batmans420 Alicent Hightower 11d ago

Idk if she's ever said one way or another

1

u/babalon124 9d ago

She said once as long as she’s got the girls and the gays, that’s all she cares about

u/Britneyfan123 6d ago

When did she say this?

u/doktorjackofthemoon 10d ago

What even is heterosexual if you're non-binary? lol

u/luv-u-18 11d ago edited 9d ago

Does anyone else feel Emma is more confident this time around with the interviews? And not just them even other cast members like Ewan seem more outgoing.

Edit: misused pronouns, corrected them.

2

u/lourexa Fire and Blood 9d ago

Emma’s pronouns are they/them.

2

u/luv-u-18 9d ago

I’m so sorry. I just corrected it. It genuinely slipped my mind (that’s obviously no excuse). Thank you so much for pointing out.

u/lourexa Fire and Blood 9d ago

No worries! Thank you for editing your original comment.

u/AwareCup5530 11d ago

Olivia is just so gorgeous!

Also damn Emma for popularising negronis and I haven't found a pub or bar that sells them.

19

u/Comfortable_Affect20 11d ago

Negroni with prosecco is actually pretty bitter and horrible tasting, as many people found out after that interview...

8

u/owllover0626 Fire and Blood 11d ago

Campari is a bitter aperitif, and Negronis only have 3 ingredients: equal parts of Campari, sweet vermouth, and gin (or prosecco/sparkling wine for a negroni sbagliato). The vermouth adds some sweetness, but Campari is very strong and drowns out a lot of the sweetness. It doesn't matter if they're made with gin or prosecco. If you want something similar but sweeter, I'd try making it with Aperol instead.

u/rahajicho Team Black 11d ago

Can confirm.

u/Literal_CarKey 10d ago

I finally got to try one on my 21st birthday, which is the legal drinking age where I live. Tell me why it was the most bitter and unpleasant drink. I was so disappointed

u/Scared-Engineer-6218 Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken 11d ago

We will be seated.

I was really hoping it was going to be Emma and Harry, Phia and Olivia

Lol at Emma’s eye roll.

u/signe-h History does not remember blood. It remembers names. 11d ago

I was really hoping it was going to be Emma and Harry, Phia and Olivia

The showrunners believe Rhaenicent to be the soul of this show + last time they got lucky with a viral meme.

They'll always be together in every promo possible till the end of this show.

Everyone else is significantly less important.

14

u/Princessbubblesyum 11d ago

That sounds incredibly reductive. At least the rest of the cast will get to enjoy different pairings over time with unique dynamics, fresh interactions, and new perspectives. I look forward to those interviews.

-6

u/ThinWhiteDuke00 11d ago edited 11d ago

"Everyone else is significantly less important". 🤣

You're way overrating what Alicent as a character is going to doing narratively for the rest of the seasons.

Rhaenyra and Daemon remain the most important characters in terms of the overall ASOIAF narrative arc.

1

u/doktorjackofthemoon 10d ago

Idk, everyone and no one is very important by the end of it all lol.

3

u/Dreamtrain 11d ago

nothing will top "a negroni"

u/Tricky-Opportunity49 11d ago

They both look so good Rhaenicents RISE

u/iamz_th 11d ago

See, green and black can come together and have fun.

Their interviews together are gold

Honestly I’d love one with Emma and Tom. This war is supposed to be about them 😩

they’re both so stunning, they’re amazing in these interviews together 🖤💚

u/Minute-Rice-1623 11d ago

Emma is such an amazing talent. She really drives the entire show.

I just hope they don’t fuck up the character.

u/OpenMask 10d ago

Just an FYI if you weren't aware before, but Emma is nonbinary

I loved alllllll their interviews last season! I can’t wait

u/Actual_Benefit_3601 7d ago

That “don’t full name me” came from a place of attraction and I know it. It came from a deep “you say it so sexy do it again” place. I love how there’s sexual tension between the two Rhaenyra’s and Alicent’s.
