Emilia Clarke Reveals Why She Joined The MCU After Starring In Other Favorite Franchise Game Of Thrones

It’s no longer quite true that once an actor becomes a beloved part of one franchise, they can’t find their footing in a different one, especially with major properties like Star Wars, DC and Marvel continuing to churn out projects on a regular basis. As such, fans were thrilled when former Game of Thrones star Emilia Clarke, Mother of Dragons and Burner of Innocents (only partially her official title), signed on to play a part in the upcoming Disney+ series Secret Invasion. Now, Clarke has opened up about the real reason she decided to take on a role in yet another major franchise after her time on GOT.
