Emilia Clarke Feels It Is Easier To Keep Spoilers For Secret Invasion Than GOT
Emilia Clarke has already worked with one of the biggest drama franchises in the world of television the Game Of Thrones. The actor collaborated with the billion-dollar superhero franchise MCU for Secret Invasion. During an interview with the media outlet Entertainment Weekly, the actor pointed out that it is way easier to keep the spoilers of Marvel’s Secret Invasion than Game Of Thrones. She said-
“I’ll tell you what, it’s so much easier now because whenever it comes up or people want to ask, you just get to be like, ‘Dude, Marvel. I can’t say anything, That’s just what I kept saying over and over again.”
While talking about the preventive measures to avoid the situation of leakages with respect to their upcoming projects, the actor mentioned-
“When we were doing Game of Thrones when it started to get to the later seasons, some massive security changes happened. I was chatting with [showrunners] David [Benioff] and Dan [Weiss] and they were like, ‘Marvel. We’re just learning from Marvel. Whatever Marvel’s doing, we just want to do that.’ So that became, you don’t print anything — and then there was like me and Peter Dinklage being like, ‘I need it on paper! I can’t learn my lines without it being on paper!'”
On Joining the biggest superhero franchises of Hollywood, the actor said-
“I was like, ‘I think a man’s going to come and kill me if I say anything,'” she recalls, adding that she went so far as to take the SIM card out of her phone for the first few days of filming because she was so afraid of fans tracking her down. It took her a while before she “chilled out,” because she’ll never forget how much it hurt when Game of Thrones spoilers leaked. “It just sucks. Not that I did the spoiling.”
With an IMDb rating of 6.1 out of 10, the star studded-cast of the mini-series includes- Olivia Coleman, Kingsley Ben-Adir, Ben Mendelsohn, Killian Scott, Don Cheadle, Emila Clarke along with Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury.
