Role of Tommen Baratheon
Tommen Baratheon is a fictional character from a series of science fiction novels by American author George R. Martin A Song of Ice and Fire and a television adaptation of Game of Thrones.
Tommen Baratheon, introduced in 1996 in Game of Thrones, is the youngest son of Cersei Lannister of the Kingdom of Westeros. Subsequently, he appeared in Martin's films Clash of Kings (1998), Storm of Swords (2000), Celebration of the Crows (2005) and Dance with Dragons (2011).
Prince Tommen Baratheon is the brother of Joffrey and Princess Myrcella and second in line to the throne. Tommen is the youngest son of Queen Cersei Lannister and, like his siblings, he is also the son of Cersei's brother Jaime Lannister, but he does not know about this, as he considers Robert Baratheon to be his father. Tommen is called beautiful, kind and weak-willed.
Dean-Charles Chapman plays one of television's most useless characters in Game of Thrones: King Tommen Baratheon. Even though Tommen is still a child, fans have not been kind to the boy king. Tommen has always been meek and naive, and now that he has power in his royal hands, he is actually dangerous.
Tommen is arguably Game of Thrones' most hated character (alongside rivals High Sparrow and Septa Unella). But he definitely deserves it. His brother Joffrey may have been just a coward, but at least his unpredictability made him interesting. Tommen is afraid of his own shadow, and his every appearance on the screen is a giant yawn while we wait for him to make an important decision.

He also portrayed business leader Stanley Dark Brown in the CBBC sitcom Stanley Dark Brown's Rising Globe and starred as Tommen Baratheon in the 4th, 5th and 6th seasons of HBO's crisis series Video Game of Thrones.
