Emilia Clarke Refuses to Watch ‘House of the Dragon'
No, Emilia Clarke will not watch #HouseOfTheDragon: "I just can’t do it. It’s weird. It’s kind of like someone saying, ‘You want to go to this school reunion that’s not your year' That’s how it feels. I’m avoiding it." https://t.co/cWcrEjDn03 #Sundance pic.twitter.com/7VyrR6L5Fv

she told Variety’s Matt Donnelly : “No! Can you [forgive me]?” she said when asked about watching “House of the Dragon.” “It’s too weird. I’m so happy it’s happening. I’m over the moon about all the awards… I just can’t do it. It’s so weird. It’s so strange. It’s kind of like someone saying, ‘You want to go to this school reunion that’s not your year? Want to go to that school reunion?’ That’s how it feels. I’m avoiding it.”
Emilia attended the Variety Studio presented by Audible at Sundance to promote her festival world premiere, “The Pod Generation.” she stars opposite Chiwetel Ejiofor as a couple in the not-so-distant future who try to have a baby through a detachable artificial womb. The film wrestles with topics such as abortion, which she spoke passionately about with Variety.
Emilia Clarke: "There's so much politics around being a mother, having a child, not having a child...my God! How dare people have the audacity to have that opinion on someone's life?" #Sundance https://t.co/YLre9wH57y pic.twitter.com/0S0ssCToVU
