Emilia Clarke's post-'Game of Thrones' career enters a striking new phase as she leads 'Ponies', Peacock's upcoming Cold War thriller set for release on 15 January. The series offers Clarke one of her most grounded roles yet and arrives at a time when the platform is navigating significant financial shifts.
Clarke stars alongside Haley Lu Richardson in a story centred on two American Embassy secretaries living in Moscow in 1977. Their lives change dramatically as they begin investigating the sudden deaths of their husbands. The pair soon uncover a larger conspiracy and start operating as CIA agents. The first images, shared in a preview by Variety, show Clarke's character Bea deep in embassy work as the mystery unfolds.
