Emilia Clarke deed seksscènes Game of Thrones onder druk

De actrice die Queen Daenerys speelde in Game of Thrones trok regelmatig haar kleren uit in de serie maar nu blijkt dat ze daar enorme moeite mee had! Volgens Emilia Clarke waren, “the nude scenes were terrifying.”

Nu ze een doorgewinterde acteur is, kapt Clarke snel producenten af ​​die haar grenzen niet respecteren. Tijdens een interview met Dax Shepherd in de podcast Armchair Expert zegt Emilia Clarke over ‘nude scenes’:

“I’m a lot savvier with what I’m comfortable with, and what I am okay with doing. I’ve had fights on set before where I’m like, ‘No, the sheet stays up,’ and they’re like, ‘You don’t wanna disappoint your ‘Game of Thrones’ fans.’ And I’m like, ‘F–you.’ I feel like I’ve seen enough now to know what is actually needed.”

Clarke herinnerde zich dat ze intieme scènes op de set had gefilmd, en onthulde dat ze naaktscènes “angstaanjagend” vond. Ze legde uit hoe voormalig collega Jason Momoa optrad als haar mentor tijdens het filmen van seizoen 1. Hierover zei ze:

“It’s only now that I realize how fortunate I was with that, because that could have gone many, many, many different ways. Because Jason had experience, he had done a bunch of stuff before coming on to this, he was like, ‘Sweetie, this is how it’s meant to be and this is how it’s not meant to be, and I’m going to make sure that’s the way it goes,’” Emilia Clarke said about the nude scenes, adding that Momoa would always be sure she received a robe during the filming of nude scenes. “He was so kind and considerate and cared about me as a human being. He took care of me, he really did. In an environment where I didn’t know I needed to be taken care of.”

De inmiddels 33-jarige Emilia Clarke kwam net van de toneelschool toen ze gecast werd voor de rol van Daenerys Targaryen in Game of Thrones:

“I’d come fresh from drama school, and I was like, ‘Approach this as a job.’ If it’s in the script then it’s clearly needed, this is what this is and I’m gonna make sense of it. I’m floating through this first season and I have no idea what I’m doing, I have no idea what any of this is. I’ve never been on a film set like this before, I’d been on a film set twice before then, and I’m now on a film set completely naked with all of these people, and I don’t know what I’m meant to do and I don’t know what’s expected of me.”

 

Emilia Clarke schittert momenteel in de kerstfilm Last Christmas.
