A few seats over from Daenerys Targaryen at the head banquet table sits Varys, played by Conleth Hill. Throughout the sequence, Varys does not have much to do outside of capping off Daenerys’ exit from the banquet with an ominous, worried look on his face. After all, Varys is always thinking about the good of the realm and is having some second thoughts about whether the Mother of Dragons is the best candidate to shepherd in that good. Back in 2019, Emilia Clarke went on “The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon” and revealed that the coffee cup belonged to an absent-minded Conleth Hill:
“We had, like, a party before the Emmys recently. And Conleth, okay, he plays Varys. He was sitting next to me in that scene. He pulls me aside, and he’s like, ‘Emilia, I’ve got to tell you something. I’ve got to tell you something, love. The coffee cup was mine.’ It was his. It was Conleth’s coffee cup. He said so. He’s like, ‘I think it was. I’m sorry, darling. I didn’t want to say anything because it seemed the heat was very much on you.'”
I never bought that it was Emilia Clarke’s coffee because she’d be aware of her belongings in regards to her immediate space. It makes far more sense that someone was milling about over there, set down their cup, and then when it was time to start shooting, forgot they placed it there. Conleth Hill would need to make his way around to the other side of the banquet table to get to his place, so it totally makes sense he left the cup where he was in between takes. Clarke added, “He might have been drunk, but he said it. So I’m gonna take that.” So will I.
