As we’ve realized, the torture on Game of Thrones wasn’t all faux. Actress Hannah Waddingham, who performed Septa Unella, lately shared a horrible expertise on the HBO present whereas capturing her closing scene with Cersei Lannister. She mentioned, “I’ve basically just been waterboarded for 10 hours.” Now, Lena Headey is talking out about how a lot it sucked and the way she even tried to minimize the blow.

“She had a really shit time doing that scene,” Headey mentioned in a part of an interview with Insider for Gunpowder Milkshake. She was requested about capturing the scene the place Cersei tortured Septa Unella by pouring wine on her face which Waddingham described as brutal, calling it the worst expertise she’d had other than childbirth. Headey, who was reportedly unaware in the course of the interview that Waddingham had shared her model of occasions in May, referred to as it a “really, really tough day” however famous how they wished Unella’s torture to really feel “authentic.” She additionally praised Waddingham for her professionalism.

“People have different limits,” Headey mentioned. “People will go to different places. And some people will be like, ‘I don’t want to fucking put myself in that position.’ I totally respect whatever your boundaries are, but Hannah was a trooper. That was a long day of prune juice in your face.”

I’m not going to enter element about what Waddingham skilled capturing the season six finale, “The Winds of Winter,” as a result of we already did that. You can learn it right here if you wish to know the way fucked up all of it was (and the way much more fucked-up it might have been). In brief, the state of affairs sucked and it’s horrible that Waddingham needed to undergo that. Even although they wished it to really feel genuine—at the price of Waddingham’s well being and well-being, I’d add—Headey famous how at one level even she felt issues had gone too far and determined to take issues into her personal fingers. She stopped aiming the wine at Waddington’s mouth. “I was like, ‘I’m just going to do a light salad dressing drizzle around her nun’s [cloth headdress],’” she mentioned.

Gunpowder Milkshake—which hopefully doesn’t function 10 hours of a lady having prune juice poured on her face—begins streaming on Netflix on July 14.
