Game of Thrones has an interesting relationship with the porn world. They seem to love using pornstars to do their dirty work, but rarely acknowledge that proclivity for casting so many adult performers, usually utilizing them in a one and done capacity. They seem to be changing their ways, however, as they're welcoming back Samantha Bentley (above right) for an encore performance this season.
According to XBIZ (link below), Bentley received an e-mail from the producers asking her to return for the fifth season, though she is if course forbidden from revealing if she'll be reprising her role as "Whore #2," though it seems as if she's got a bulked up role.
“I actually was more nervous this time just because last season I hadn’t seen any of the show,” Bentley confessed. “I only had a small role last season but getting the part was awesome and it got such a great response. So I was really, really nervous this time.”
After getting the invite last June, Bentley filmed her Season 5 role in September and October, traveling to Northern Ireland from Budapest, where she was living at the time.
“I was back and forth quite a bit this season — eight or nine hours each way,” said Bentley, who was changing planes in London on the way. “It was a ridiculous round trip. I did it a few times.”
To calm her nerves on the first day of her shoot she kept the same routine she has before a high-stakes porn scene.
“I will always wake up an hour before I have to leave and do yoga,” she said. “I didn’t sleep that night beforehand.”
She said being on the “Game of Thrones” set is such a departure from the typical porn shoot.
“It’s such a different experience,” Bentley said. “For example a closed set is 100 people. If a porn set is closed, it’s the camera dude and whoever is fucking. They say ‘closed set’ and still have 100 people on set — an entire crew. I never even really knew who leaves when they say ‘closed set.’
“As far as experiences go, it’s a career highlight and I’m so honored that they had me back this season. It’s opened a door for me to do other things. It’s one of the best things I’ve ever done.”
Of course we'll keep you up to date with the latest info, and provided she's nude on the show, we'll bring you those scenes as well.
