Emilia Clarke was afraid of being fired from Game of Thrones after her brain hemorrhage. The British actor played the role of Daenerys Targaryen, the exiled Princess with aspirations of reclaiming her father’s Iron Throne and ruling the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros, throughout all eight seasons of HBO’s immensely popular fantasy drama. However, after Game of Thrones season 1 in 2011, Clarke suffered a brain hemorrhage and experienced aphasia which seriously threatened her job security on the show.
