There are not too many people who can do that convincingly and luckily we have one."
What were your expectations going into your second season?You never know how involved you are.
I had no expectations at all.

Especially since I haven’t seen season 6.
I’m gonna do all my work and then I’ll watch it.
What’s Euron like this year?He’s kind of a joker throw in.
He doesn’t take anyone too seriously.
He doesn’t take himself too seriously.
You have a character in the books but you also have to make it personal.
I want to show a guy who just loves it.
It’s fun to do a character who’s a fun ride.
You play tend to play heroes in Denmark right?I always play the protagonist in Danish films.
I’m always the hero.
But when you have an accent in an American production you become the villain.
We’re not faking it.
So you’ve got the option to’t fake it.
Now all of the things I learned in Denmark have translated into an American production.
Do you sort of feel you have to distinguish yourself from Ramsay?Ramsay was the new Joffrey.
I think Ramsay was a great character and played by a great actor [Iwan Rheon].
But for me, Ramsay is 100 percent evil.
I think Euron is not, which makes things a bit more conflicted within him.
I’m more like a hooligan.
How has the character changed this season?Every scene he’s a new guy.
He’s different he’s different with different people.
This season he’s more charming.
He’s much more fing enjoying himself.
He’s such a fing idiot douchebag, an impolite selfish child.
She’s smart and intellectual and bloody sexy.
But for Euron, the question is: “How can I become king of the Iron Throne?”
Who gives him the best odds?
Is it the dragon mother?
Is it with Cersei?
I think it is.
Dany is still trying to be a good, decent, honest person.
Cersei sold her soul many ago.
Maybe that’s why Euron likes her.
I think he considers her to be a worthy wife.
Euron’s not a Lannister, he’s an Ironborn, she’s something better.
