Quotes

"Sometimes I feel like the kid left out - the weirdo with the silver hair that no one likes to talk to."
―Emilia Clarke on her role as Daenerys Targaryen, and that fact that Daenerys isn't in Westeros so she doesn't interact with most of the cast.

Notes

File:Portrait of abuse remembered

Clarke's first major on-screen roll was for the anti-abuse organization Samaritans.

  • Following her theater career, Emilia Clarke's first major on-screen appearance was in a series of television commercials which aired in 2009 for the anti-abuse organization Samaritans. The commercials consist of Clarke, apparently having been verbally and/or physically abused, staring into the camera with wordless horror for almost a full minute as tears silently roll down her cheeks. Coincidentally, this situation of abuse is very close to that of Daenerys in the first book, A Game of Thrones, and in Season 1 of the series.
  • Emilia Clarke's favorite candy is "Pick'n'Mix", and she can actually be bribed with them.[7]
  • Clarke made her Broadway début in Breakfast at Tiffany's, playing the leading role of Holly Golightly. The play began its run in February 2013.
  • As of September 2012, Clarke was reported to be dating Seth MacFarlane.[8] On 20 March 2013, it was reported that she and MacFarlane had ended their relationship.[9]
