Here’s Where Else We’ve Seen Emilia Clarke Outside of Game Of Thrones

For many around the world, the first time they ever saw Emilia Clarke was in the HBO adaptation of George R.R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire: Game of Thrones. In the series, Clarke portrayed Daenerys Targaryen, an exiled princess from the Targaryen dynasty. Daenerys is one of the most popular characters in both the television series and the novels, becoming a feminist icon because of her strength and prowess until the series began to twist her character arc, ultimately making her one of the final villains of the television series. Although the final season of Game of Thrones was quite unpopular and widely critiqued, it solidified Clarke’s career as a rising actress.
