Headey was surprised by the strong reaction to her character Cersei's 'Walk of Atonement' scene.

Another actress, Ella Bright, also talked about her experiences with intimate scenes.

Lena Headey used a body double for the 'Walk of Atonement' scene and said it was the right choice.

Headey said acting is a joy, but she needed to focus on the emotional part of the scene, not her body.

She said she couldn't have done the scene if she was worried about being naked in front of many people. She would have been defensive.

Headey said she was in a different position than younger actresses and had the confidence to set boundaries.

Goldie Hawn also talked about the problems of being a child star.

Lena Headey played Cersei in Game of Thrones and had many experiences on set.

Headey said she had been through a lot and could stand up for herself, but younger actresses might not be able to do the same.

At the time, some people thought Headey was not a good actress because she didn't do the nude scene herself.

Headey explained that she had done nude scenes before, but this time she wanted to focus on the emotional part.

She said being naked for three days would have made her angry and that's not what she wanted for her character.

Lena Headey said using a body double was the right choice for her performance in the 'Walk of Atonement' scene.

Headey praised the body double, Rebecca Van Cleave, for her work and said it was not easy to be naked on camera.

Headey said she was a mother and a public figure and didn't want to do the nude scene herself.

She said she didn't just sit back and do nothing, she was there for three days with the body double.

Lena Headey played the role of Cersei in Game of Thrones and got many nominations for it.

Headey said the controversy was part of a bigger issue that many actresses face.

She said young actresses often have to do scenes that make them uncomfortable, like kissing or sex scenes.

Headey said she didn't question those expectations when she was starting out because she was just happy to have a job.

She said she would go home and cry or feel weird after those scenes, but now she looks back and thinks it was not right.
