Meet actress Rebecca Van Cleave, who worked closely with Headey during the three days it took to shoot the now-infamous naked walk of shame. According to EW, who spoke with Van Cleave on set, she performed the scene completely naked while Headey wore a beige shift during filming in Dubrovnik last October. CGI was used later to combine the two shots, putting Headey's face on Van Cleave's body.
"It was one of the scariest, most wonderful, most gratifying experiences I could have imagined," Van Cleave tells the magazine. "I never in a million years would have thought I would be in Dubrovnik surrounded by hundreds of extras and crew members throwing food at me, but it was amazing."
As for why Headey used a body double for the scene, there are "several reasons," according to the actress. First, she was pregnant at the time. Second, she wanted to focus on the emotions in the scene, rather than her nudity. "If somebody is brave enough to do this, I applaud it," Headey tells the magazine.
