Nathalie Emmanuel says that being two girls on the largely male-dominated set of GOT helped bond her and Emilia Clarke.
, the 31-year-old actress reflects on what it was like portraying Missandei on the popular HBO series. Emmanuel tells the outlet that after stumbling upon the casting, she"pretty much gave it all" she had and studied for the audition by watching"millions of videos of translators" to prepare her for the fictional language in the script.
Emmanuel admits, however, that not all her memories from filming were positive. She specifically remembers one moment on set where her co-star,"Emilia and I got on like a house on fire from the beginning. When I joined the cast, she had already been shooting for a few years, and she was definitely ready to have some female energy around her," Emmanuel remembers."She and I always looked out for each other.
Amid the Black Lives Matter movement, Emmanuel has also given a lot of thought to the way her character died"It definitely caused me to reflect a lot more – about race and diversity more generally," she says."At the end of the day, if there’s ever a show on the level of again, representation has to be part of the conversation from the beginning. That way, there’s no single person who has to represent every other person of colour.
