The 28-year-old actress, who plays Missandei in the hit HBO fantasy drama series, explained that now the show has surpassed George R.R. Martin’s works, bosses have had to take greater precautions to prevent a plot leak.
Sworn to secrecy surrounding the show’s plot and inner workings, Natalie admitted that a large part of her job is keeping her lips sealed.
Natalie said: “They’ve definitely tightened up who has scripts and how we’re given them. You have to look at it digitally.
“They won’t send it to us unless our emails have a two-step verification [security process]. You might get given rehearsal notes on set, but you have to sign for and return them before you leave.”
The actress added: “If you don’t, people will chase you until you give them back!”
Speaking about how she was tasked with keeping Jon Snow’s resurrection a secret, Nathalie said: “I was obviously sworn to secrecy.
“I was so sick of people asking me about it. We’re not allowed to say but I also wouldn’t want to.”
She added to Fabulous magazine: “My friends and family are pretty relaxed and know not to bother me.”
Recently appearing in The Fate of the Furious, the actress revealed that she now gets recognised by fans all of the time.
Natalie explained: “What has happened as the result of being in such successful and loved franchises has been incredible. Getting recognised has been a real adjustment, as it can throw you when you’re sweaty coming out of yoga and someone asks for a selfie!
“I used to run away from it, but as the years have gone on I’ve realised it’s people expressing their appreciation of your work or the show you’re on.”
Game of Thrones returns to Sky Atlantic on July 17.
