The Oldboy star also voiced her surprise that a legitimate Twitter account was used to spread the rumours.

“Dream casting is fun, yeah,” she said, “but I heard it was announced though, which is weirder.”

However, the performer demonstrated her desire to enter the universe if the opportunity arises in the future.

“Sure, I’d like to do anything that’s worth telling, that’s a good story, that’s innovative, that’s great characters.”

The 33-year-old had previously tried out for the title role of Daenerys Targaryen, but Emilia Clarke ultimately won the part.
