Lena Headey used a body double. Of course she did...

Stunt ####?

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.
And apparently, fans are pissed off.

The evil Queen was met with a barrage of foul-mouthed abuse while being decorated with a collection of bodily fluids as she made her way through the narrow streets of King's Landing.

But many viewers were less concerned with her plea of penance as they were with Lena Headey's body. Audiences swiftly turned to Twitter to point out the actress' body was not that walking through the streets of King's Landing, but instead she'd used a double.

Some hardcore devotees even went as far to compare Heady's body double to her topless scenes from 2007's fantasy epic 300, just to confirm that the figure in question was definitely not Headey's.
