Tyroe Muhafidin Shares Why He Thinks Theo is 'Not A Nice Kid'
In the exclusive sit-down, upon being asked about the feedback on their roles and characters, Tyroe began by expressing gratitude for all the love and support that came from the viewers. "There is a lot of support and just a lot of people said they love Theo, which I think is confusing," Tyroe shared.
Adding to this, he explained that he does not believe Theo to be a nice kid. "I don't particularly think he’s a great kid," he added. "He’s not the nicest guy. I wouldn’t be friends with him. You always bat for him (pointing at Ismael)."
Ismael joined the discussion by explaining why he feels Theo is not so bad.
Ismael Cruz Cordova Doesn't Agree With Tyroe Calling Theo a Bad Guy
As Tyroe shared his thoughts on his character, Ismael came to Theo's rescue and shared how he is a teenager and everyone is that way at that age. "I do bat for him. I think that when you’re twelve, thirteen, or fourteen years old and like life is starting, that’s when all your ideas are exploding in your head. [It’s] so confusing,” Ismael shared.

"But at the same time, (pointing at Tyroe) I can imagine you right now, you’re concerned about like I wanna look good in this and that, and I actually by the way, also gonna go to war. And the guy picks up a bow and an arrow and then starts learning. And you see him dealing with all these things. I bat for the guy, I like that kid. Doesn’t matter what he’s feeling, he’s stepping up."
The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power season 2 premieres on Thursday, August 29, 2024.
