'House of the Dragon' director shares deleted scenes of Alicent's wedding and her 'powerful' fight with Rhaenyra

• Warning: Spoilers ahead for "House of the Dragon" season one, episode two.
• "House of the Dragon" director Greg Yaitanes shared pictures of cut scenes on his Instagram Story.

A "House of the Dragon" director has revealed that they shot the wedding between Alicent Hightower and King Viserys before it was cut.

At the end of episode two, Viserys (Paddy Considine) is forced to choose a new wife after the death of his previous wife during childbirth. After discussing it with his advisors, he finally announces that he is going to marry Alicent (Emily Carey), the best friend of his daughter, Rhaenyra (played by Milly Alcock).

This causes friction between the two girls, however, in episode three there is a time-jump which means that audiences missed the initial backlash from Rhaenyra.

On Saturday, Greg Yaitanes, who directed the second and third episodes of the "Game of Thrones" prequel, reshared on his Instagram Story posts from a fan depicting deleted scenes from "House of the Dragon."

Two pictures show a stand-off between Rhaenyra and Alicent, which is likely to have taken place before the wedding.

"Two scenes that unfortunately didn't make it into the final cut, the aftermath fight between @millyalcock and @theemilycarey — both were quite powerful," Yaitanes wrote about these pictures, according to screenshots provided by People.

The second set of pictures shows Rhaenyra helping Alicent prepare for her wedding, hinting at a reconciliation.

There is a moment in which Rhaenyra helps Alicent put on her dress that mirrors a similar scene in episode one when Alicent does the same for Rhaenyra.

"This scene mirrored the scene in episode 1 where @theemilycarey was dressing @millyalcock — now reversed with heartache," Yaitenes wrote about the scene.

Tania Tyatyambo Couper, a hairstylist and makeup artist who worked with Emily Carey on the show, also shared behind-the-scenes images of the actress preparing for the wedding scene and a photo of her wedding dress.

"The dress, the hair, the tiara ….. such a shame it didn't make the edit .... Cutting room floor sad times … @theemilycarey sad times indeed .. @houseofthedragonhbo why you do me like this ," Couper captioned the post.

Last month, Carey told Entertainment Weekly's "The West of Westeros" podcast that despite the big age gap between herself and Paddy Considine, which echoes their characters' age gap, the 19-year-old actor quickly found a common interest with her 48-year-old costar while filming the show.

"Paddy is a massive 'Drag Race' fan, and so am I," Carey said. "So I'd come into set and be like, 'Hey, Paddy, did you watch the new episode of All Stars?' He'd be like, 'Oh my God, yes! Let's talk about it.' And so that's how we'd start every morning."

New episodes of "House of the Dragon" air Sundays on HBO at 9 p.m. ET.
