Emilia Clarke

Emilia Clarke is an English-born actress who's claim to fame is playing Daenerys Targaryen (aka "The Mother of Dragons") on HBO's hit fantasy series 'Game of Thrones,' based on the novels by George R.R. Martin. Her early career consists of appearances in the film 'Spike Island,' the TV movie 'Triassic Attack,' the short film 'Shackled' and TV series 'Doctors,' all based in the UK.
