The ‘Game Of Thrones’ Period Scene Was the Most Embarrassing Moment Of Sophie Turner’s Career
Sophie Turner talked to Jessica Chastain about a particularly difficult, embarrassing moment from her ‘Game of Thrones’ job.
Just as the moment was awkward for Turner to film, it was a particularly dramatic moment for Sansa. Getting her period meant she could bear children for cruel king Joffrey (Jack Gleeson) and that the two would have to consummate their marriage.
Fortunately, Sansa never has to go through with that ordeal and ends up outliving Joffrey — whose death was an on-screen relief to nearly everyone.
“I was doing a romantic scene with an actor that I had a crush on, years ago, before I was married. I didn’t realize it, but in the scene, I was calling him by their personal name,” Chastain recalled.”It was terrible. I didn’t realize until they cut the scene.”
That awkward feeling when you realize you’ve given yourself away, eh Chastain?
