A brief behind-the-scenes clip from the new HBO fantasy show “A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms” has people talking, as the show’s fans dissect everything from the actors’ clothing to how the characters click, just hours after the premiere.
The seven-second clip, making the rounds on social media, shows actress Rowan Robinson adjusting a medieval-style green dress with braided details in what appears to be a dressing room. Robinson plays Rowan “Red Apple” Fossoway in the show, a prequel set in the world created by George R. R. Martin.
The show, released on HBO on Sunday, is based on Martin’s “Dunk and Egg” stories and expands the “Game of Thrones” universe by focusing on tournaments, chivalry, and the intrigue of lesser-known noble houses.
The character played by Robinson is a member of the Fossoway house, whose “Red Apple” branch is known throughout the “Game of Thrones” world for its distinctive heraldry and for all members having red hair.
Some reactions on social media ranged from excitement over possible plot twists to excitement about the character’s presence.
“People saying ‘I can’t believe Raymun is gonna raise another guy’s baby,’ he ain’t worried about none of that,” one user said, adding laughing faces.
“Raymun’s basically the season’s top winner if we’re keeping it real,” said another user.
And a third user joked: “Lady Fossoway, send a raven if you ever need help, and I’ll be there.”
