The casting wheel keeps turning in Westeros, and this time it’s spun toward one of the most enigmatic women in George R.R. Martin’s Dunk & Egg tales. HBO’s Season 2 of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms promises new lands, new conflicts, and new faces — but one actor has already made her obsession clear. Lucy Boynton, fresh off her casting, dropped a post that felt less like a press note and more like a love letter to her character.

Lucy Boynton is “obsessed” with Rohanne Webber
Boynton’s Instagram post wasn’t coy — it was full‑throated fandom. Sharing artwork of Dunk and Rohanne, she captioned it with gothic emojis and a declaration: “LADY ROHANNE 🖤🕷️ obsesssssed with this woman 🕷️ and this cast 🖤.”
That phrasing, stretched vowels and all, leaned into Rohanne’s reputation as the “Spider Widow,” a figure whose cunning and allure make her one of the most dangerous women in the Reach. It’s the kind of obsession that feels less like PR and more like a fan who’s just discovered their favorite character. Think of it as Boynton stepping into the fandom’s great hall, torch in hand, declaring allegiance to Rohanne before the banners are even raised.
Season 2 expands into The Sworn Sword
Of course, Boynton’s excitement isn’t happening in a vacuum. Season 2 will adapt The Sworn Sword, the novella where Dunk and Egg cross paths with Rohanne Webber. Her arrival promises sharp contrasts: Dunk’s hedge knight humility against Rohanne’s aristocratic cunning.
Add in the expansion into Dorne and the Reach, and you’ve got a season that feels less like a continuation and more like a widening of the map — new lands, new politics, new dangers. Boynton’s obsession mirrors the fandom’s anticipation, because Rohanne isn’t just another noblewoman; she’s a test of Dunk’s values, a spider weaving webs that could entangle even the tallest knight.
