Season seven of Game of Thrones [2] may have just ended, but we're already getting a sneak peek of season eight! On Tuesday, Emilia Clarke officially decided to commit to Daenerys Targaryen's platinum blond hair [3] by dying her own brunette strands permanently. Clarke, who's famously worn a wig [4] in the past, shared the exciting moment on Instagram. As usual [5], she included a hilarious caption to go along with the photo:
AAAAHHHHHHH SHHHHIIIII****** I done did it. Mother of dragons meet Emilia. Emilia meet mother of dragons. If you squint just so you might never know. 🐉⚡️ All hail to the magnificence of @kevalexanderhair and @candicebanks74 the genius creators of 'KHALEESI WIG' (and not forgetting all the hair on game of thrones for 8 glorious years) for at long last making this magical moment a reality. 🙌🔥❤️🏆💃😎👌 #khaleesikicksoff #gameofthrones #cominghomeneverfeltsogood.
Well, it looks like all of those fans who had their Ikea capes [6] in a twist over the fact Clarke isn't actually blond like Dany [7] in real life can now rest easy. We can only assume that filming has officially begun for the eighth and final season of the show [8], so check back later for more fun behind-the-scenes shots.
