Emilia Clarke is that rare thing: the ass-kicking action heroine. GQ bends the knee to our queen of the screen who’s as at home taming dragons as she is battling Terminators
Emilia Clarke does not go method. To play the dragon-riding, slave-freeing, army- raising, warrior-badass queen Daenerys Targaryen in Game Of Thrones she goes gangster.
“Yes! A lot of gangster rap before Thrones,” she says, having met GQ in New York. “So, Tupac. Biggie. But then some Florence.” When she was acting opposite Jason Momoa, as horse lord Drogo, she listened to Salt- N-Pepa’s “Whatta Man” on loop. “And Beyoncé, obviously. I tried Eminem once, but that was too much. For me it’s like, you wake up and think, I’m not feeling particularly badass this morning. Coolio, Biggie, can you help me? When you’re doing a huge scene, trying to empower hundreds of extras, you’ve got to get me a G.”
Apart from being a Thrones tie-in album waiting to happen, it does perhaps partly explain how this oh-so-English 28-year-old (smiley, silly, laughs like a maniac, talks like she’s on a time limit) became the empowered, ball-busting leading lady Hollywood so sorely lacks. It’s no shock she landed summer 2015’s plum role (and the godmother of fierce leading ladies everywhere) as Sarah Connor in Terminator Genisys. And it’s probably even less of one that she’s GQ‘s Woman Of The Year. “Oh my God, I was so happy when I was told!”
