The Mother of Dragons has officially left the building. Emilia Clarke is saying goodbye to her Game of Thrones character Daenerys Targaryen and moving onto her newest role as Kate in Last Christmas.
It's been almost three months since the series finale of Game of Thrones aired and Emilia, 32, is already showcasing her acting range.
In the star's most recent film, Last Christmas, she plays a young depressed woman, Kate, who works as a costumed elf in a Christmas supplies store.
When Kate keeps bumping into a young man, Tom (played by Crazy Rich Asian's Henry Golding), her life takes a turn for the better.
In the witty film, written by Emma Thompson and directed by Bridesmaids' Paul Feig, Tom and Kate's first introduction comes to a halt when the young women is pooped on by a bird.
