A GAME of Thrones star, who plays a 12-year-old on the show, has admitted that he was disturbed by a “messed up” sex scene he filmed with a much older co-star.
Dean-Charles Chapman, who plays King Tommen Baratheon, was just 16 years old when he filmed the nude scene with then 32-year-old actress Natalie Dormer, who plays Margaery Tyrell.
“It was very disturbing,” said Chapman to MTV after watching season five’s episode, High Sparrow.
“Normally when my stuff’s on the telly, I don’t watch my own bits. But this was such a big scene for my character, so I checked it out.
“It’s just really weird as a viewer to watch — even if I watch it, it’s pretty messed up, because Tommen is such a young kid. Margaery is like, this fully grown woman, who is really just using Tommen for the power she can get from him.”
Chapman said he was “shocked” when he read the script and found out about the sex scene, but added that the producers did all they could to make him feel comfortable during filming.
“I only had my top off; underneath the quilt I had trackies on and stuff ... But Natalie — I pat her on the back for what she did.”
