One of the ways is that within the first episode of the show, based on the novels from George R.R. Martin; Clarke has had some nude scenes. And while nudity was quite heavily featured in GOT, the actress admits that it was due to nudity that she turned down a role in Fifty Shades of Grey.
“I love her [about director Sam Taylor-Johnson], and I thought her vision was beautiful. But the last time that I was naked on camera on [Game of Thrones] was a long time ago, and yet it is the only question that I ever get asked because I am a woman.
“And it’s annoying as hell and I’m sick and tired of it because I did it for the character — I didn’t do it so some guy could check out my tits, for God’s sake. So, that coming up, I was like, ‘I can’t.’ I did a minimal amount and I’m pigeonholed for life, so me saying yes to that, where the entire thing is about sensuality and sex and being naked and all of that stuff, I was just like, ‘No way am I going to voluntarily walk into that situation and then never be able to look someone in the eye and be like, no, you can’t keep asking me this question.’”
