Yahoo News Game of Thrones star "felt lost" after filming final scenes
Daenerys Targaryen actress Emilia Clarke has discussed her feelings after finishing work on Game of Thrones' final season.
Clarke has been a major force on HBO's fantasy epic since its debut, shifting from a timid heiress into a ruthless leader of dragons over seven seasons. Come this April – when Thrones finally returns – Daenerys could even end up as Queen of the Realm.
If there's any realm left to rule over, that is.
She might have a fearless exterior on the show, but now the English actress has discussed how the experience of finishing Thrones was very emotional for her.
Via Daily Mail, she revealed: "It's over and I cried like a baby on the last day. I felt completely lost. It was very strange and wonderful to get this (Last Christmas, her upcoming film).
"This part couldn't be more opposite, because dragons ain't funny. Ten years is a long time. It's like losing an actual limb. I was 22 – a child – when I first walked on the Game of Thrones set. I grew up with her."
Game of Thrones season 8 will premiere on April 14, 2019. The show airs on HBO in the US and Sky Atlantic and NOW TV in the UK. Season 7 is now available to buy on DVD, Blu-ray or digital download.
