British actresses Emilia Clarke and Olivia Colman recently had a playful interview for Vogue where they attempted different North American accents. In the “Off the Cuff” video segment, they took turns asking each other to fulfill hilarious requests.
Olivia Colman, known for her role as Queen Elizabeth II in “The Crown,” asked Emilia Clarke to do her best California accent while reciting a famous line from Clarke’s character, Daenerys Targaryen, in “Game of Thrones.” The line was, “I will take what is mine with fire and blood.” Clarke took on the challenge with enthusiasm and nailed the West Coast valley girl twang, delivering the line in a convincing California accent.

In response, Emilia Clarke asked Olivia Colman to recite a line from her character, Queen Elizabeth II, in a Canadian accent. The line was, “It is fun to be queen, sometimes.” Colman, feeling a bit flustered, attempted a Minnesota or Wisconsin accent, which deviated from the intended Canadian accent. Nevertheless, her attempt was still pretty solid and added a humorous touch to the exchange.
This interaction wasn’t the first time Emilia Clarke showcased her California accent. Back in 2015, she impressed audiences with her ability to mimic the distinctive accent during an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel’s show. Clarke jokingly mentioned that she learned the accent from watching the movie “Clueless” multiple times. So, if anyone finds it amusing or surprising to hear Daenerys Targaryen speak like Cher from “Clueless,” they can credit filmmaker Amy Heckerling for inspiring Clarke’s accent skills.
