It's never perfect casting to hire somebody who looks good but can't act if they are playing the lead. You always need an actress with talent to convey the essence of the character, no matter what the character's attributes are. Nobody wants to watch something wooden. Having somebody who is completely out of their depth just makes it obvious that she was cast for her looks and commercial value above her ability.
Emilia Clarke is so tremendously bad in GOT that Sophie Turner looked fine, especially as it's a huge ensemble cast with varying degrees of ability. Also she was growing up so a lot of leeway was given.
She's a knockout but she can't act for shit. I thought Emilia Clarke was bad but Sophie Turner is truly dreadful.
