SPOILER ALERT: This interview contains details of the final season of Game of Thrones. Alfie Allen joined nine of his Game of Thrones cast-mates with Emmy nominations this year—his first recognition from the TV Academy—as the blockbusting HBO megaseries drew to a close.

EXCLUSIVE: With his latest directorial effort, A Day in the Life of America, Jared Leto had two objectives in mind—to be honest, and to do "brave work."

The real Queen Elizabeth I and Mary Stuart probably never met. But when you cast a film with Margot Robbie as Elizabeth, and Saoirse Ronan as Mary, it seems only right that they come together, if only for one scene.
