Henry Ashton Opens His Camera Roll From A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms

 

written LE MILE

 

For this edition of The Personal Edit, Henry Ashton opens his personal camera roll during the release of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms. Stepping into the role of Daeron Targaryen, a greenseer navigating visions of past and future, Ashton enters the expanding world of Game of Thrones at a decisive narrative moment.

Between filming days, costume fittings, late-night script sessions and the anticipation surrounding the weekly episodes, his images document the atmosphere from within. Shortly after, he returns to screens in A Good Girl's Guide to Murder, marking another key chapter in his trajectory.

Built from spontaneous snapshots on his phone and paired with his own captions, The Personal Edit offers an intimate, behind-the-scenes glimpse into a rising actor’s world at the height of release momentum.

Unfortunately I never got to do any sword training on the project, due to Daeron being a pretty ineffectual knight. But, during a horse ridding lesson, I got to see Pete and C.C do their thing.

This is me getting a mould of one side of my face. Turns out getting your ear chopped off is quite an involved process.

We went through quite a few different looks for Daeron, mostly with shorter hair. But eventually Pippa Woods decided on this one. I thought the greasy, long, Kurt Cobain-esque hair was perfect for him.

This photo of the amazing Finn Bennett makes me laugh. From the waist down he’s ready to ride into battle. But up top, he’s ready for party party in Berlin.

Shaun and Pete practising lines. I love this photo as it sums up their relationship on and off camera. Just two friends helping each other out.

Ed and Finn deep in a very tense game of chess. I forget who won. Probably Ed. The man’s a menace.
