yeah he was white in the books but the actor is good and his role has been solid. i pity the people that cant get over that.


It’s more of a continuity thing than oh I hate him since he is black. I guess in the 170 years between this and GOT the realm went full on racist and killed off all the mixed race houses. Also the wigs look ridiculous since we all know dark skin doesn’t come with naturally blond hair it just feels so out of place it takes away from the story for me. Thankfully this cast can act a hell of allot better than the black woman that played the inquisitor in Obi-wan.

I don't really care about the corn rows and braids on the men. It looks like normal hair just dyed. However, I had a big problem with Laena Valaryon's hair. She looked like an 18th century French aristocrat with a giant, ridiculous wig. That isn't really a black thing. I would have had a problem with any child actor with a bad wig like that.

Nobody has hair that looks like that lol They all look weird to me except Dany. She's the only one that really could pull it off imo.
