DAILY RECORD: Game of Thrones star Emilia Clarke on coping with nude scenes

Feb 26 2012
Exclusive by John Millar


The stunning star of swords and sorcery smash Game of Thrones has revealed her secrets for coping with hitting the screen in the buff.

Emilia Clarke, 24, was just out of drama school when she landed the role of a lifetime as the silverhaired princess Daenerys Targaryen in the award-winning series.

But she quickly realised that her wardrobe assistant might have an easy shift because her role demanded frequent nudity.

The actress, from Berkshire, admits that, while she was apprehensive about stripping off, she also realised it was a necessary part of the role...

... Emilia, who was previously seen in TV soap Doctors and sci-fi adventure Triassic Attack, said: "It was daunting, really scary. This was the first major job I had to do but the nudity was integral to the character.

"Her journey sees her going from a girl into a woman, which is also a sexual awakening.

"As soon as you put yourself there, it's not about you, the actress, it's about the character, so that took the fear away. Hopefully, that's what you see on the screen and not just a naked actress..."


Game of Thrones season two premieres Sunday, April 1, 2012 at 9/8C on HBO.

Cast includes Caprica's Esai Morales, Stargate Universe's Ona Grauer, Jared Abrahamson, MacKenzie Porter, Martin Cummins, Michelle Harrison, Matty Finochio, Dominika Juillet and Jesse Moss.

Lost Girl Monday

TV EQUALS: Exclusive Interview: Lost Girl’s Ksenia Solo Talks Kenzi, Locke & Key, Comic Con and New Girl’s Schmidt


What does it take to fit in?

In real life, you need some social skills of course. However, in the fae world, the fictional supernatural universe of the Syfy series Lost Girl, you need one of two things: some sort of fae power such as Bo (Anna Silk) succubus ability to suck the life out of you or some mad survival skills like the ones held but charming, quirky and yet tough as nails Kenzi played the very talented and mesmerizing Ksenia Solo.

TV Equals had a chance to chat with the wonderful Ksenia and ask her a little bit more about her character Kenzi, what US viewers can expect in the upcoming first two seasons and much much more.

Check out what she had to say below and don’t forget to tune in for a new episode of Lost Girl which airs tonight Monday February 27th on Syfy (10-11 p.m. ET)...


Photobucket

... Q: What would you say is the flavor of season one and two?

Ksenia Solo: "In season one we were really discovering who we were as a show, as all of our separate characters. Obviously, all of us actors knew that we’d gotten involved in something different than what we’ve all usually seen on TV. So, we were excited about that and we were really finding our footing.

And in season two things are just bigger, better, sexier, funner, if I can use funner as a word. As the season grows we obviously all start to get into our own trouble and that’s especially true for Kenzi who starts the series off as this girl that’s grown up on the streets and she’s a successful thief and is alone. She’s really alone in the world, and now she’s really grown and is getting into her own trouble.

She’s grown as a person and her fae wikipedia has definitely grown as well. In her own right she’s really becoming a warrior because she’s got to do everything else that these people have to do who have these wicked Fae powers and she’s just a human. She just has to rely on her mind and on her courage...

LOS ANGELES TIMES SHOW TRACKER: Creative Minds: 'Justified' showrunner Graham Yost

February 27, 2012
by Yvonne Villarreal

Justified” executive producer Graham Yost talks about his Nickelodeon days, adapting Elmore Leonard for TV and the fear of repetition...



... Q: What’s your take on killing off characters? It’s become this new thing, to do the unexpected and kill off the folks that, in the past, would escape such a fate at the last minute.

Graham Yost: Everyone wants to ask about Mags. That’s what you’re doing, isn’t it? My new, perhaps glib line, is: It wasn’t hard to kill off Mags, but it was hard to have Margo Martindale leave the show. We miss her. She’s just a great person and a wonderful presence and a brilliant performer. But Mags’ story had run its course and I didn’t want to just keep her around because we loved her. It’s hard. Listen, it was hard to kill Aunt Helen. It was hard to kill off Doyle. There’s some characters in this new season who don’t make it. It’s not easy because you grow to like the people playing the parts and you don’t want to lose that. At the same time, we need to surprise the audience and keep things moving. Sometimes death has to happen."

Q: Is Dewey going to catch a break this season? I feel so bad for that guy.

Graham Yost: "Dewey does not catch a break. But I will say this: Dewey Crowe lives to see another day."

Q: Is it just one more day?

Graham Yost: "Well, maybe more than that. That’s an instance of us just loving a character. Damon Herriman, who plays him, is just the greatest guy. He just does such a wonderful job. He’s truly a chameleon. Dewey is definitely the epitome of dumb but lovable. He’s such an idiot..."
