Ewan Mitchell played Aemond Targaryen in House of the Dragon when he was in his late 20s. Aemond, who was supposed to be a teenager in the timeline of the show, was portrayed by Mitchell with maturity and intensity. His performance added depth to the character, and his age did not prevent him from portraying Aemond's fiery ambition and ruthless demeanor.

A highlight of the acting was when Mitchell portrayed a young Targaryen prince; one would not have felt that an age difference prevented him from bringing the many complexities of the character alive.
