GAME OF THRONES Star Emilia Clarke Doesn't Think Daenerys Deserved Her Fate: "I'm On Her Side"

The final season of Game of Thrones proved to be highly divisive for a number of reasons, but the plot point that arguably came in for most backlash was the fate of fan-favorite character Daenerys Targaryen.

Pushed to breaking point by the deaths of two of her dragons and loyal friends Missandei and Jorah Mormont, Dany gave in to the madness that's long plagued her family and burned King's Landing to the ground, killing thousands of innocent people in the process.

When the Queen of Dragons sentenced Tyrion to death for freeing his brother Jamie, Jon Snow realized that she'd become a tyrant and ended her life.

Although Dany's ultimate "heel turn" was foreshadowed in the earlier seasons, many fans refused to accept the character's fate, and it sounds like actress Emilia Clarke took issue with certain developments herself.

"I still think Daenerys did nothing wrong. It's not fair that Jon gets to live," she joked when asked about her character's demise during an appearance at DIF London over the weekend.. “I want Daenerys with him. With Jon. They could go to family therapy and fix their issues. Daenerys is a very hopeful character, she has a lot of hopes and I wished that she was able to achieve that."

Though Daenerys certainly appeared to be dead as a doornail, we have seen characters resurrected in the HBO show. Is there any chance Clarke could return for the planned Jon Snow sequel series? The Secret Invasion star admitted that it's highly unlikely, but did add: "Never say never."
