Actress Emilia Clarke says she needed “vodka and some flattering lighting” to film nude scenes in the popular TV series Game of Thrones .
The 29-year-old, who stars as Daenerys Targaryen in the show, says she needed a little help and encouragement before she agreed to strip off for Game of Thrones , reports dailymail.co.uk.
Season 6’s episode 4, Book of the Stranger, ended with the Mother of Dragons burning down the temple of the Dothraki, along with all the Khals in it. She emerges from the fire naked, much like she did at the end of the first season after the death of her husband Khal Drogo and the birth of her dragons.
“All I needed was vodka and some flattering lighting and I was ready,” Clarke said.
Clarke, who had previously signed a no-nudity clause, said she found that particular nude scene to be “empowering”.
“It was just a wonderful, strong moment I wanted to own, a real empowering, girl-power wow scene. I was so thrilled with it. It’s not a sexy scene, she’s not naked for no reason, it’s not gratuitous. She’s naked because she’s just destroyed her enemies in this almighty blaze after they underestimated her,” she said.
