As a seasoned gamer and avid fan of both Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon, I must say that one character who truly stands out for me is the young Lord Paramount of The Riverlands, Oscar Tully. This kid has got some serious Lyanna Mormont vibes going on, and it’s not just because they share black hair and eloquence!
Among the aspects I adore most in the “Game Of Thrones” universe is the intricate web of side characters. The initial season alone boasts numerous captivating figures who aren’t main characters, and “House Of The Dragon” is skillfully expanding this heritage by introducing even more engaging and emotionally nuanced personalities. Based on social media buzz, several new faces are striking a chord with viewers, but one character post-Episode 7 appears to be garnering the most attention – not just because he’s impressive, but also because he seems strikingly similar to a character from the original series.
In a recent development of the series, Oscar Tully ascends to the position of Lord Paramount of The Riverlands upon the passing of his grandfather Grover earlier in the season. Initially, Daemon underestimates him due to his hallucinations, believing he can effortlessly control or intimidate him. However, it’s revealed that he’s not so easily swayed. Despite his small stature, lack of experience, and youth, Oscar proves to be thoughtful and self-assured. People around him, regardless of their age, pay attention when he speaks. His demeanor is strongly reminiscent of Lyanna Mormont, and fans of House Of The Dragon are praising his portrayal. In fact, I’ve seen three separate tweets comparing the two characters that each garnered over 35,000 likes on X, previously known as Twitter. Here’s a sample…
Instead of attributing the similarities between Archie Barnes and Bella Ramsey’s performances solely to their youth, whiteness, black hair, and eloquent speech, I believe there is a deeper layer to consider. Both actors exude an understated yet powerful confidence in their dialogue. They don’t resort to shouting, but their words carry a resonance that captivates the audience. It’s as if they subtly emphasize specific words, adding weight to their points without being overly dramatic about it.
Furthermore, they both exhibit an aura of nobility, demonstrating a strong resolve to choose the correct course, even when faced with daunting challenges. This trait is often highlighted in their respective noble houses as well. It’s important to note that not every character bearing the surnames Mormont or Tully is flawless. Before the occurrences in “Game of Thrones,” Jorah Mormont is compelled to escape after being caught trafficking slaves for his extravagant wife, and Catelyn Stark (formerly Tully) mistreats Jon Snow. However, both characters express profound regret for their actions and feel they’ve let down their families. Some viewers have even noticed this trait in Oscar Tully, as suggested by this comparison…
In the course of its broadcast, Game Of Thrones demonstrated that if a character strikes a chord with viewers, they’re not averse to extending their part. With rumors suggesting Tully isn’t a major figure in the books, it wouldn’t be unexpected for him to assume a significant role in the upcoming conflict, given the series’ past.
Tonight, catch the Season Two finale of “House of the Dragon” on HBO, or stream it through other platforms. Though Season Three has been confirmed, we’re likely to wait over a year for its release. Given this, fans should savor the remaining episodes as fully as possible.
