Westeros is full of ugly fathers: Robert Baratheon, Balon Greyjoy, and Wilding Craster, who sells his children (born to daughters he rapes). White Walkers. The worst of all, Tywin Lannister (played by Charles Dance in the television adaptation of “Game of Thrones”). He doesn't treat any of his three children well; Jaime (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) and Cersei (Lena Headey), with the appearance of a perfect knight and queen but without heart, vessels of pride of House Lannister, no longer exist. Tywin is so inept at understanding the twins' own desires that he won't believe their terrible, adulterous secret when he hears it from Cersei's own mouth.
If Tywin would at least give away his two eldest sons, he would only despise the younger ones. Tyrion (Peter Dinklage). Tyrion had the misfortune of being born a dwarf and his mother Jonah died in childbirth. His father hates to see him, seeing Tyrion's presence as a bad exchange: the love of his life in exchange for shame. When your son shoots you with a crossbow while you're sitting in the bathroom? Yes, you have made one Some Mistakes when raising it.
In the third season premiere of “Game of Thrones,” “Vaar Doheris” (adapted from Tyrion's first POV episode in “A Storm of Swords”) helped Tyrion gain control of the Lannister capital of King's Landing. , so Tywin asked him to accept. Legal heir as a reward. The eldest Lannister responds in one of the most withering speeches ever written and performed, almost identical in both prose and television:
“You are a nasty, hateful little creature, full of jealousy, lust, and low cunning. The laws of men give you the right to bear my name and show my colors. you are not mine. And to teach me humility, the gods condemned me to see you carry that proud lion, my father's shield, and his father before him. But neither gods nor men will force me to make Casterly Rock your whore.
Dinklage and Dance are some of the best scene partners in the series, so it's no surprise that they have a more positive working relationship than their characters. Dinklage was a recent guest on “Hot Ones” (see below). During the interview, he described how Dance was more of a father figure to him than Tyrion was to Tyrion.

In a 2013 interview with NME, Charles Dance described working with Peter Dinklage: “A very lovely man. [and] A wonderful actor. After those scenes, I always apologize to him. I have to treat it like that.”
“Hot Ones” host Sean Evans asked Dinklage about it. “I love to dance Charlie,” Dinklage responded between chicken wings, his former co-star “one of the [his] Favorite people.” Dinklage explained that every scene Tywin and Tyrion shared was about humiliating and humiliating the former, and as actors it was difficult not to get lost in the dialogue and characters when they had better things to chew on. . So, “dance has become a habit […] Between each take, he would come over and gently touch me on the shoulder. We don't hug him because we don't have time, but he always has to give me something. [touch].”
Lena Headey has testified about the true nature of her and Dinklage's father; Speaking to The Daily Beast in 2014, Charles Dance mentioned that he was actually a “cat” off-screen while playing the lion.
Dinklage acknowledged that Tywin was a “horrible man” and called Tyrion's killing of him in the “Game of Thrones” season 4 finale “a shame” for “The Children” (since he and Dan are no longer will work together) and “The most classic thing in a television show.” One of the death scenes.
In fact, Tyve's death is one of the most gruesome murders in “Game of Thrones.” But very well deserved. Tywin Lannister, the Lion King who is obsessed with his heritage but does not love his real family, dies sitting on the toilet.
