When "Game of Thrones" (GoT) returns with Season 7, fans will see Cersei on the Iron Throne and Daenerys' arrival in Westeros. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Clarke revealed that Daenerys aim has been to "get back to Westeros."
"She's got to sit on the Iron Throne for the ripple effect. She knows she can rule better than anybody else," Clarke said.

"But as with 'Game of Thrones,' you know when your character is looking good, that's when you know you're not safe. Because [the writers are] all, "Oh, do you like her? We'll kill her!" Clarke said.
About Daenerys rumoured encounter with Jon Snow, the new King in the North, the actress did not have much information. According to her, "rumours have never been substantiated within the 'Game of Thrones' circle."
She said that anything is possible in Season 7. "So I don't know. I could kill him. He could kill me. He could be dead before we even meet. I could be dead before we even meet. Arya could kill us both! You never know! Anything's possible. All I know is winter is coming ... and I'm bringing the heat!" Clarke added.
