If there’s one thing to be said about the cast ofGame of Thrones, most of them didn’t have the luxury of being prudish when it came to shooting the fantasy drama with its love of bloody violence and full-frontal nudity. Nathalie Emmanuel, who played Missandei in the George R.R. Martin series, had her fair share of clothes-shedding during her time on the series, and she recently revealed that doing the show had an impact on her future career. The actress is set to appear for the third time as Ramsey in the latestFast and Furiousmovie,F9, and it was while speaking on Josh Smith’sMake It Reignpodcast - via the New York Post - that she talked about her time in the world of the Seven Kingdoms.
“When I didGame of Thrones, I agreed toward certain nude scenes or nudity within the show,“Nathalie Emmanuelsaid. “And the perception from other projects, when the role required nudity, that I was just open to do anything because I did it on that one show.” She continued, “What people didn’t realize is I agreed [to] terms and specific things for that one particular project, and that doesn’t necessarily apply to all projects.”
“I’ve had people challenge me and be like, ‘But this part requires that,’ and I said, ‘That’s fine if you require that in the part; I don’t feel comfortable doing that level of nudity. I will do this amount, you know, I can do this, which I think is necessary for the part,” she went on. “Frankly, if someone was, like, ‘Well we need thisnudity,’ I would be, like, ‘Well, thank you very much, I appreciate your interest but that’s just not what I feel is necessary for this part and it’s a difference of opinion and creative differences and that’s fine.'”
While Emmanuel has struggled to shake certain aspects of the legacy ofThrones, the 32 year old British actress has appeared in a number of other movies, including twoMaze Runnersequels, as well as herFast and Furiousmovies,Furious 7andFate of the Furious. She also starred in the mini-series ofFour Weddings and A Funeraland voiced the character of Deet in Netflix’sThe Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance. Her latest movie,F9, hasnot been getting the most favorable reviewsfrom critics, but comes with a long standing franchise behind it which will no doubt give it a helping hand when it arrives in theaters on June 25th.
