The HBO series, Game of Thrones, has a huge fan following and so does House of
the Dragons. When House of the Dragons came out, fans demanded the showmakers
cast their favorite Witcher. However, it did not happen then; they want to
remind the showmakers once again. Yet another prequel to Game of Thrones, which
is still in the early stages of production, is getting a lot of attention, as
reported by Screenrant.

FANS DESIRE THE FORMER WITCHER TO BE A PART OF THE GAME OF THRONES PREQUEL

Fans suggest the 39-year-old actor should be Aegon the Conqueror in the prequel.
They even argued the Enola Holmes actor was born for that role. Given his
excellent performance in The Witcher, fans want to see more of Cavill’s rough
and tough side.

The fervor among fans seem to only gain rise as time passes. But how did it
start? How did fans get the idea of asking for the former Witcher to be in the
Game of Thrones?

CAN HENRY CAVILL REALLY PLAY AEGON THE CONQUEROR?

In House of the Dragons, the viewers saw Aegon I Targaryen having a vision of a
White Walker invasion. This vision inspired fans to start the campaign for the
Superman actor. Because the English actor is not going to be a Witcher after
season 3
[https://netflixjunkie.com/netflix-originals-too-late-for-henry-cavill-even-the-closest-one-to-one-adaptation-of-the-witcher-season-3-could-not-make-him-stay/]
of the Netflix Original, he might have enough time to star in the Game of
Thrones prequel. Moreover, once, the Man of Steel actor himself expressed his
desire to be a part of the show.

Because Henry Cavill has already been a part of shows like The Tudors, and The
Witcher; fans believe he could be a part of another fantasy show as well.

While fans have their own demand for the Game of Thrones spin-off show, what are
your thoughts about it? Tell us if you think Henry Cavill could nail the
character of Aegon the Conqueror.
