Emilia Clarke: I beg Game Of Thrones creators to tell me who wins



Game Of Thrones actress Emilia Clarke said she has even tried getting David Benioff and Dan Weiss drunk in order to find out how the series will end, but the show’s secrets are being kept under lock and key.

The HBO fantasy is set to return for a third season this year, but Clarke is desperate to glimpse a little further down the road.

‘I’ve said to George ‘come on, tell me who wins, please!’ And he thinks I’m joking and I say, ‘no, no, I’m deadly serious!’’ she gushed. ‘His lips are sealed. And I’m sure that Davidand Dan know but they don’t tell anyone –I’ve got them drunk and they still wouldn’t tell me.

‘I’ve been pleading with them, ‘tell me who wins!’ And they won’t say a word. They’re under lock and key. ! But I care passionately about what happens to Dany. How could I not?’

Game Of Thrones’ seconds season saw Clarke’s character Daenerys Targaryen transform from a shy young woman into a warrior would-be Queen with dragons in tow.

‘Dany is the most brilliant character and everything she comes up against – and she faces a lot of adversity – she survives and what I like about her is that she learns from every single mistake,’ she added.

‘I think the biggest thing about Dany is that she, unlike many of the other characters in the story, doesn’t have an egotistical desire to get the Iron Throne. It’s not like this need or obsessive desire, it’s her destiny and there’s no control over it.’

Fans will get the chance to experience ‘a taste of Westeros’ next month when, bizarrely, Game Of Thrones goes on a food truck tour of London.

Spiced, cracked wheat Medieval porridge and wild boar cured sausage with mustard preserved fruits will be served up, with the truck making stops at Goodge Street, Covent Garden, Soho and Liverpool Street on March 4. A special guest will be on board for the tour.

Who can blame her.

Thought I doubt D&D know what they're doing next season, let alone at the end of the show (whether or not it passes the books *sobs*).
bornstalker 6th-Mar-2013 04:31 am (UTC)
I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that GRRM has told them the basic plot points leading up to the end so that in the event of his death, the show can be finished (even if the books can't.)
super_creeps 5th-Mar-2013 11:29 pm (UTC)
Can you not find out what happens by reading the books?

Noooooo

Though I do think it is going to be someone that has a small and seemingly irrelevant role so far that will take the throne
wirepatch 5th-Mar-2013 11:55 pm (UTC)
i'm willing to bet money it's a character who's introduced in the second half of the final book (if we ever get that far)
tine_marie 6th-Mar-2013 12:09 am (UTC)
It's called WesteROS for a reason

She is the true Queen...it is known.

NGL, I would try it if I were a cast member.

That's not the only thing I would do to those loathsome toads to get answers tbh.
numbedtoe 5th-Mar-2013 11:32 pm (UTC)
my theory is that none of them get it. that for all the schemes and battles, murders and deaths, that it will be someone whose not even on the radar as a player who just sorta ends up ruling by virtue of being the last one standing.

Basically I expect some Lady Gray shit.

It can't be a unified 7-Kingdoms as a believable "happy" ending in my opinion. They need to be split up, cos seriously that 7-Kingdoms stuff in in the heydey sounded shady.

I don't want her on the Iron Throne, ideally, I'd like her to take back Winterfell.

But really Sansa/happiness is my ultimate ASOIAF OTP.

IDK who I really want on the throne though. Maybe Stannis?

Yeah, I feel like there's still a lot to be done to get Meereen stabilized... but I also think that GRRM is kinda done with that now. lol.

Essos shouldn't be ruled by one person--or rather, it's impossible to rule.

Someone pointed this out in the other post already but

‘I think the biggest thing about Dany is that she, unlike many of the other characters in the story, doesn’t have an egotistical desire to get the Iron Throne. It’s not like this need or obsessive desire, it’s her destiny and there’s no control over it.’

lol nooo. I guess you could argue that in the books but in the series, that's not how she comes across at all.

Dany just wants to go home. And she got lost on her way. Super lost.
__nocturna 6th-Mar-2013 12:04 am (UTC)
I don't think that comment is too far off. She always waxed more poetic about the red door in Braavos than she ever did about the Iron Throne.

That's why I don't really want her to end up on the throne, I think she would be happier elsewhere
tine_marie 6th-Mar-2013 12:07 am (UTC)
Right?! She never even knew Westeros, how could she possibly be expected to rule it properly? Like if you don't know the people and the land itself how can you decide what's best for everyone?
watermeloncholy 6th-Mar-2013 12:07 am (UTC)
Yeah, but the show fucks up everything so...

Emilia's speaking about Dany the way she would probably be portrayed in the hands of better writers.
loverswalk 5th-Mar-2013 11:44 pm (UTC)
i have been constantly contemplating getting into this show but idk how i would respond to ALL of those characters (too many too soon imo), even after setting aside my dislike for many things fantasy. idk, man. idk.

it's not really as fantasy as it could be

Yea I've read the books and I still blank on a lot of the satellite characters mentioned in the posts.

I spent the first few episodes confused but it comes together soon enough.

i've read all the books and watched the show and i still get confused at times, but the main story arc isn't too hard to follow
