Renée Elise Goldsberry - "House of the Dragon"

Hamilton star Renée Elise Goldsberry (She-Hulk, Girls 5Eva) chats all about the Game of Thrones prequel, House of the Dragon (HBO) on the latest episode of Son of a Binge.  Renée reveals why she prefers the prequel to the original. Plus, she confesses what made her stop watching Game of Thrones in the early seasons. She also talks about what she learned from being on One Life to Live, and how soap operas set the stage for dramas like House of the Dragon. Renée gets candid about diversity on television and why shows like Friends did such a disservice to Black audiences. Finally, she chats about her time on Hamilton, from when she first auditioned, to the night Steve Martin (Only Murders in the Building) and Phylicia Rashad came to see it at the Public Theater. She also reveals the Succession role she had to pass on. She breaks down House of Dragon, which stars Emma D'Arcy and Milly Alcock (Princess Rhaenrya Targaryen), Matt Smith (Daemon Targaryen), Olivia Cooke (Alicent Hightower), Nanna Blondell (Lady Laena Velayron), Eve Best (Princess Rhaenys Targaryen), Graham McTavish (Harrold Westerling), and Phoebe Campbell (Rhaena Targaryen). From the graphic child birth scenes, to women in power, to Daemon and Rhaenyra's taboo relationship, Renée discusses it all, and tells us whether she will ever  watch the rest of Game of Thrones.
