Emilia Clarke was born on 26 October 1986, in London, England. She is one of the youngest and most successful contemporary actresses, perhaps best known for her remarkable role in the famous television show, “Game of Thrones”. After her appearance in this show she received more and more invitations to act in various movies and television shows. Although Emilia is still very young, she has already been nominated for and has received a lot of awards. For example, Scream Award, Gracie Award, Screen Actors Guild Award, Primetime Emmy Award and many others. Undoubtedly, there is a bright future waiting for her as now she is famous all over the world.
So how rich is Emilia Clarke? It is estimated that Emilia’s net worth is $3 million, with the main source of this sum of money being, of course, her appearances in the “Game of Thrones”. In addition to this, Emilia has appeared in several movies and also worked on a video game, created based on the story and characters of “Game of Thrones”. Emilia is only 28 years old, so she will probably achieve even more in the future, and the list of movies and television shows that she has appeared in will be a lot longer. If this happens, Emilia’s net worth will also grow.
Emilia Clarke Net Worth $3 Million
When Emilia was still a small girl, she became familiar with acting and theatre as her father worked as a theatre sound engineer. Emilia studied at Rye St Anthony School and later at Drama Centre London. At the beginning of her career Emilia appeared in several plays, including the play called “Sense”. In 2009 Clarke secured one of her first roles on television in the show entitled “Doctors”. Although this role was small, it still made her more noticeable to other producers. In 2010 Emilia received a invitation to act in the television show called “Game of Thrones”. She accepted this offer and it was one of her most successful decisions as later this show became one of the main sources of Emilia’s net worth. During the making of this show Emilia had an opportunity to meet such actors as Peter Dinklage, Lena Headey, Kit Harington, John Bradley and many others. In 2012 Emilia was cast in the movie called “Spike Island”, which also added to her net worth. As she became more famous after appearing in the “Game of Thrones”, now she receives more invitations to act in different projects. In 2015 she will appear in “Terminator Genisys”, “Me Before You” and “Voice From the Stone” which will undoubtedly bring more success. Hopefully, Emilia will continue her acting career for a long time.
Emilia Clarke’s personal life is very private, and any romantic assignations are so far just that. All in all, it can be said that Emilia Clarke is a very talented and hardworking woman. Despite her young age, she is acclaimed among other actors in the industry. She has everything that she needs for a successful acting career so she will probably become even more popular. Hopefully, her fans will be able to see her more often, as she portrays many more roles.

Quote
1
[on not knowing that the photo for the Terminator Genisys poster was being taken]: I don't remember them taking that picture. I would have turned around and said, 'What are you doing? What's that! Get that camera away from my butt!' I was looking at the poster thinking, 'Who is that?' It's cool.
2
[on her Sarah Connor role]: Let's see, there's driving a bus off a bridge, rolling out in an armored car, firing eight different kinds of weapons. It's just kicking some general butts, really.
3
[on being unaware that the Terminator Genisys poster focuses on her butt]: I wasn't thinking that they would chose my behind to promote the movie. I'm taking it as a compliment, that's all I'm saying.

My father always said "Never trust anyone whose TV is bigger than their bookshelf".

When I told my dad I wanted to be an actress, he replied that there was only one line I needed to learn: 'Do you want fries with that?'
6
I told my parents I wanted to be an actor and they were getting ready for a life of unemployment so they're just happy I'm in work!
7
Not to sound too much like an obnoxious actor, but the character never really leaves me. I've read all the "Game of Thrones" books many times over, so I sometimes find it easier being on set, because it can be hard to get out of character.
8
I looked around one stage school when I was maybe nine. It just scared the bejesus out of me. I was incredibly open, and the girls seemed fierce and determined.
9
Because of my hair I rarely, rarely get recognized, but I was in America, in L.A., a couple of weeks ago and I was in a lift [elevator] in a department store and the doors opened and this woman stood there, looked at me and just went, "Khaleesi!" and then the doors closed! So that was mental and bizarre and rarely happens but when it does it's normally on that kind of crazy scale.
10
One of the many things I love about Daenerys [from Game of Thrones (2011)] is she's given me an opportunity to fly the flag for young girls and women, to be more than just somebody's wife and somebody's girlfriend.
11
[on her Game of Thrones (2011) character] I felt for Daenerys. I felt for her situation as a woman. Being in such a male-dominated society, where she was being abused by the men around her--it was that sort of sympathy, I suppose it started off as that. But then as you track her story, the problems that she overcomes and the way that she deals with them with such grace and the way that she deals with them when she has no training. The only thing that she has is herself and her iron will--that's just a fabulous, incredible side to her character, really. And the fact that you watch her fall in love. You know, she meets the man that she loves more than anything else. She goes through painful events but she is still this strong, independent woman. And I think that, as a female, is what I really connected with.
12
[on her role as "Daenerys" in the Game of Thrones (2011) series] Sometimes I feel like the kid left out--the weirdo with the silver hair that no one likes to talk to.
