"Mr Weinstein was quite calm about trying to explain to me that if I would at least take my top off, this would demonstrate to him that I wasn’t going to be shy about doing so in front of the cameras."

"He pushed me inside and rammed me up against the coat rack in my tiny hall and started fumbling at my gown. He was trying to kiss me and shove inside me. It was disgusting."

Spoilers ahead for Game of Thrones Season 5

WARNING: 

Spoilers ahead for Game of Thrones Season 5

With the sound of 'shame, shame, shame' still ringing in your ears since this week's Season 5 finale of Game of Thrones, Lena Headey's body double from that now-infamous scene has spoken to Entertainment Weekly about the process of filming the walk, and also the post-production process involved.
It was the scene fans of the show had been waiting five long seasons to see: the evil, scheming Cersei Lannister, played by Lena Headey, finally getting her comeuppance as she was forced, shorn and naked, into the streets of Kings Landing for her long walk of atonement back to the castle. The scene was harrowing, long (clocking in at over eight minutes), apparently very expensive to shoot (allegedly $200,000!), and by the end of it you almost felt sorry for the Queen mom. Almost.

Game of Thrones: Lena Headey's nude Walk of Shame body double speaks out

How The Walk of Shame was made: Actress breaks silence on their brave 3-day performance
BY JAMES HIBBERD 


The body double who performed Game of Thrones’ Walk of Shame nude for three days is breaking her silence on enacting the stunning sequence. 
Actress Rebecca Van Cleave (photo below) worked closely with star Lena Headey on the gripping penance walk in Sunday’s season 5 finale. While filming the Walk in Dubrovnik last October, Van Cleave performed nude while Headey wore a simple beige shift. The show’s visual effects team then merged the performances together—combining Headey’s progression of facial emotions during Cersei’s punishing hike to the Red Keep and Van Cleave’s physical movement echoing Headey’s body language in order to create the seamless illusion that Headey was completely bare for the sequence.

When "Game of Thrones" viewers watched Cersei Lannister's Walk of Shame, they were actually seeing Rebecca Van Cleave's naked body. But she argues that doesn't take away from Lena Headey's performance.

"I personally don't agree with anybody who says having a body double detracts from the scene," the 27-year-old tells Entertainment Weekly. "Lena put her heart and soul into that scene. It should all be about the finished product, not about whose body was where and and whose head was where."
