The protagonist of the completed HBO series assured that she felt pressured to appear without clothes in her role as Daenerys Targaryen.
Although "Game of thrones" ended this 2019, making her one of the most outstanding actresses in world fiction, Emilia Clarke still has a small thorn in her history as the protagonist of the HBO series.
In conversation with Dax Shepard on his "Armchair Expert" podcast, the 33-year-old British interpreter acknowledged that she initially felt pressured to appear n-de in her role as Daenerys Targaryen.
"I'm much smarter (now) with what I'm comfortable with and what I agree to do. At the time I had fights in the recording studio where I'd say 'no, the sheet stays up' and I They were like, 'You don't want to disappoint your fans. I was just like, 'F--k them!'" Clarke said.
When he began his journey through "Game of thrones" he was only 23 years old and considered that refusing to accept and filming a scene without clothes could bring him problems: "I accepted the job and then they sent me the scripts. When I read them I was like: 'Oh , here's the catch.' I had just gotten out of drama school and took it on as a job. If it was in the script, then it was clearly necessary."
In fact, being exposed to a film set as imposing as the project created by David Benioff and D. B. Weiss —based on the work of George R.R. Martin—n-ked and surrounded by strangers brought a pressure that overwhelmed her.
"If something made me feel bad, I would go to the bathroom to cry and then come back to do the scene," she confessed.
At least actor Jason Momoa — her partner during the first season of "Game of thrones" — was the support she needed in that period of inexperience.
"It was definitely hard, but the scenes with him were wonderful, because he was like, 'No honey, this isn't right.' Clark closed.
