Lily Allen reveals she turned down a role on Game Of Thrones as Yara Greyjoy. It had something to do with her brother Alfie Allen.
Transcript
00:00Lily Allen was offered the role of Yara Greyjoy on Game of Thrones.
00:04So why did she turn it down?
00:05Maybe because she didn't want to get felt up by her real-life brother Alfie Allen, who plays Theon.
00:11You might remember when Theon first returned home to the Iron Islands,
00:14he didn't recognize Yara as his sister, so he rode it behind her and, well, copped a feel.
00:20Don't you worry about my hands?
00:23Awkward.
00:24But imagine how awkward it would have been if it was his actual sister that he was grabbing.
00:29You can tell your grandchildren about this night.
00:31Allen spilled the details in a Reddit AMA on Tuesday, saying,
00:35They asked me if I'd be interested in playing Theon's sister.
00:37I felt uncomfortable because I would have had to go on a horse and he would have had to touch me up and s***.
00:43Once they told me what was entailed, I said, no thanks.
00:46This is a homecoming I'll tell my grandchildren about.
00:49But good news for her fans.
00:51Lily Allen says she's still up for a Game of Thrones cameo in the future.
00:55Maybe more of a musical cameo, though, like Sigur-Rose in this season's Purple Wedding episode.
01:02Very good, very good.
01:03Off you go.
01:06We like that collaboration much better for the siblings, too.
01:09I'm Elena Scantlin.
01:10Stay tuned to ENTV for all of your entertainment news.
