Alicent Hightower
A striking aspect of Alicent Hightower’s character revolves around her uncanny ability to maintain a youthful appearance, a trait she tenaciously retains even as she enters her 40s in the book. At around 30, Olivia Cooke remarkably captures this quality, actively channeling the character’s enduring beauty and vitality.
Beyond the age difference, the production team has commendably executed the casting, with Emily Carey portraying the younger Alicent in the initial episodes. This dual portrayal actively bridges the character’s past and present, showcasing her overprotective personality and multifaceted nature.
