Summary
Emilia Clarke, famed for her Game of Thrones role, candidly reflects on her mixed experiences with major franchises like Star Wars, Terminator Genisys, and Marvel’s Secret Invasion — projects she admits didn’t land well, with Terminator Genisys even calling “should never have happened.” She frames these roles as lessons, not failures, since success in established IPs isn’t solely on her shoulders. Meanwhile, her acclaimed new spy thriller Ponies proves she thrives when leading projects on her own terms — and with a packed slate including producing and starring in Next Life and starring in Amazon’s Criminals, Clarke is building a diverse, unstoppable career beyond Daenerys.
