Fan Casting Aymer, Count of Angoulême in Robin Hood and the House of Plantagenet (TV-Series)

The calculating father of Isabella and a master of playing the English and French crowns against each other. Aymer manages the strategic County of Angoulême as a fortress of leverage, recognizing that in the chaos of the 1190s, his daughter is the most valuable asset he owns. He works in lockstep with his wife Alice to auction Isabella’s hand to the highest bidder, ultimately settling on Prince John to secure a permanent foothold in the Angevin heartland. He is a pragmatic patriarch who treats the "War of Matriarchs" as a market opportunity, willing to sell his loyalty for the promise of a royal bloodline.
