Emilia Clarke recently chatted with TheWrap about what fans can expect from the upcoming season of HBO’s ‘Game of Thrones.’ Filming for the new installment is currently ongoing, but the Mother of Dragons shared a bit about what is to come in the hit fantasy drama.
“Anything that you don’t expect to happen is happening,” the 29-year-old actress said at TheWrap’s 7th Los Angeles Power Women Breakfast.
Clarke had been a guest speaker at the event held at the Ocean Prime in Beverly Hills, where she was asked for details about the hit series’ new season as well as the fate of her character, Daenerys Targaryen.
Viewers last saw the Khaleesi evading death as she went on the back of one of her dragons, but only to get left behind with him days later and are met by a group of hostile strangers.
“We left on a bit of a cliffhanger,” the London native said, revealing that the horde was comprised of Dothraki, known in the world of Westeros as a group of warriors who acknowledged Daenerys as their first lady when she exchanged wedding vows with leader Kahl Drogo (Jason Momoa) in ‘Game of Thrones’ season one.
“They’re the Qoy Qoyi,” Clarke said in native Dothraki languaga. “Blood of my blood, all that. It’s I love you back to Kahl Drogo-ness of it all.”
Meanwhile, photos from the ‘Game of Thrones’ filming in the Bardenas Reales have been released, showing numerous horses riding over huge plains and camps being set up along the edge of the river. Groups of Dothraki extras were also shown being transported to the filming site.
In one of the images, Clarke was shown riding a horse, which suggested that Daario Naharis (Michiel Huisman) and Ser Jorah Mormont’s (Iain Glen) trip will bring on a successful outcome.
Unfortunately, Glen’s character was absent in the photos and Huisman is the only actor riding beside Clarke. Fans have then questioned whether Ser Jorah ever made it or if he had only been requested to ride at the back.
“It’s just go, go, go, go,” Clarke said in an interview with LA Times, clearly impressed of what is to come in the series. “Shocking moment to shocking moment. Epic moment to epic moment. It’s mental; it’s epic. And definitely Dany’s a part of it.”
HBO's 'Game of Thrones' season six is set to premiere in fall of 2016.
