Dunk, played by Peter Claffey, feels betrayed when Egg, played by Dexter Sol Ansell, is revealed as Prince Aegon, but the interview notes their bond and duty endure.
Learning the case will be the rarely practiced trial of seven, Dunk must find six additional men to fight alongside him or be declared guilty. Claffey described filming the trial as cinematic, with a large crowd, horses and sweeping music amplifying the moment, recalling a big day on set with "a thousand people" and full armor.
Ansell emphasized how much music contributes to the scene's impact and how it shapes the emotional tone during shooting.
