She’s taken an arrow, she’s saved Arondir’s life. You saw it sort of brewing underneath, maybe in her demeanor, but you didn’t necessarily see her being able to do that, which is slay orcs. I think he wanted someone where you didn’t see the physical strength necessarily coming. I mean, I’m not the obvious choice for a brawny, sort of action type character, but I think J.A. I love when you don’t see the inner strength coming in a character.

What were your thoughts when you first read the character? Right off the bat, Bronwyn is clearly a badass. In a conversation with THR, Boniadi talks about scoring the Bronwyn role, diverse representation in on-screen fantasy, and her work as an Iranian activist. It doesn’t escape me, but I hope that it helps get their message out.” It’s just the bitter irony of all of that aligning right now in this moment. “I had to sort of channel these women who are risking everything for a better tomorrow. “These brave women inspired me to play this role,” she continues. “How could I possibly know that two months later, I would be marching in a protest in Los Angeles fighting in solidarity with the brave women of Iran, who are literally risking their lives for their most basic rights.” “Onstage in Hall H, I dedicated this role to the brave women of Iran, who are on the frontlines of the fight for freedom and democracy in my homeland,” Boniadi remembers. Little did she know, just a few months later, protests would spark across the world in response to the tragic death of 22-year old Iranian woman Mahsa Amini at the hands of Iran’s morality police. Iranian-born and London-raised, the Rings of Power actress even dedicated her performance to the women of Iran, while she was at Comic-Con earlier this year. “Who among you will stand and fight?” Come the sixth episode, Bronwyn and Arondir lead an all-out battle against the Orcs. “Who among you will stand with me?” she says in a rousing speech to rally her people to battle.

In the show’s fifth episode, she calls on the Southlanders to stand up against the oppression of the Orcs trying to take over their land. Her superpower is being a mother and having that internal strength that she kind of musters into protecting the ones she loves, whether it’s her people, her son or Arondir.” “She doesn’t have any kind of superpowers. “I love when you don’t see the inner strength coming in a character,” Boniadi says.
