Emilia Clarke

Best known as Daenerys Targaryen, the mother of dragons, Emilia Clarke has gone a long way from Westeros as she plays the tough chick Sarah Connor in the newest installment of the “Terminator” franchise. “You’re lucky getting to do a novel, because, kind of like a cheat sheet, you have all the answers written in the book and you are just kinda dealing with other people’s imaginations,” Clarke told Slash Film when asked about the challenges of making the film. “Whereas with Terminator, we’re taking on something that already lives on screen. But that’s where the brilliant writing and everything that we’ve kind of built takes over.”

Peter Dinklage

Dinklage portrayal of Tyrion Lannister earned him an international attention and acclaim as he won Emmy and Golden Globe Award for Supporting Actor in 2011. The 45-year-old star starred as the villainous Bolivar Trask in “X-Men: Days of Future Past” and set to premiere his upcoming new movie “Pixels” alongside Adam Sandler.

Lena Heady

Like Clarke, Heady started her small screen role as “Terminator’s” Sarah Connor in FOX’s TV series “Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles.” After appearing as the female lead in “300,” the actress is set to join Charles Dance, also known as Tywin Lannister in HBO’s series, in “Pride and Prejudice and Zombies.”

Natalie Dormer

Known for her roles as Anne Boleyn in Showtime’s “The Tudors” and Margaery Tyrell in “Game of Thrones,” “The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1” star has an eye for great collaborators. She starred opposite “Thor” star Chris Hemsworth in Ron Howard’s “Rush” and Ridley Scott’s “The Counselor.” Now the actress is set to play a role in the upcoming zombie movie, “Patient Zero.”

Sophie Turner

Playing the young Jean Grey in 2016‘s “X-Men: Apocalypse” is Turner’s next big project apart from playing Sansa Stark in the upcoming seasons of “Game of Thrones.” The 19-year-old English actress also starred in 2015’s “Barely Lethal” and will star in the title role of Mary Shelley in biographical drama “Mary Shelley’s Monster.”
