Emilia Clarke wants to play James Bond, too
Count the British secret service among worlds the Khaleesi's would like to conquer.
While on a promotional tour for Me Before You, Emilia Clarke told UK newspaper The Daily Star that she has "a lot of unrealized dreams," including the role of James Bond. She also joked about who she'd like to have as her "Bond boy."
"I would love to play Jane Bond," Clarke said. "My ultimate leading man would be Leonardo DiCaprio. No doubt about it."
