Melisandre Actor Says Her Character Found Redemption And Fulfilled Her Purpose In “Game Of Thrones” Battle Episode
The actor also said she has been “overwhelmed” by fans’ reactions to Melisandre’s death, since she’s normally used to being on the receiving end of negative feedback from viewers who are unhappy with her character’s choices.Melisandre’s conflicting actions and redemption narrative in Episode 3 may have been confusing to fans, but it also forced people to think about the character in a more complicated way, she added.
“I was so pleased,” van Houten said about her death scene. “And I thought it was a wonderful, beautiful way to end and honor her character.” According to van Houten, the moment Melisandre walks away from the castle, takes her enchanted necklace off, and instantly ages hundreds of years into her own death was an emotional scene to film. The production used CGI when depicting her age-change on screen, van Houten said it was her when she walked out of Winterfell and eventually collapsed on the battlefield.
