Sophie Turner finds making a Jonas Brothers video 'more chaotic' than 'Game of Thrones'

You don’t get much busier than Sophie Turner's last couple of months, saying adios to 10 years of working on “Game of Thrones” as well as the X-Men movies, getting married to Joe Jonas, and also starring in the Jonas Brothers' “Sucker” video.

Sure, there haven’t been many days off, but “it’s been kind of fun,” Turner, 23, tells USA TODAY. “I like being busy.”

The newly minted Queen of the North can be seen on the big screen this weekend, playing conflicted X-Men heroine Jean Grey in “Dark Phoenix” (in theaters Friday). So how do those projects compare to co-starring with her beloved in a music video? The latter, Turner reports, is “a lot more chaotic.”

It's been a busy 2019 for Sophie Turner, marrying Joe Jonas but also saying adios to "Game of Thrones" and the X-Men movie franchise.

With “Game of Thrones,” “you have to be done with this scene by a certain time and you have to say these words and stand at exactly these spots, because otherwise it wouldn't work,” Turner says. “Whereas with a music video, it's just much more kind of free and loose and improvisational.

“I wouldn't say it's more fun. Just different.”

Her husband recently told The Guardian that she “was pretty adamant” about playing the love interest in every video going forward, which garners a laugh from Turner. “I think I said that jokingly to him because I had so much fun on the video. I was like, 'I want to do all of your music videos!' I don't think he'll let me do that at all.”

Turner says it’s “quite a strange period” right now moving on from two big geek properties. The future of X-Men is “very up in the air” because of the Disney/Fox merger, so “we're all saying goodbye, just in case.” But it’s also a liberating time: “This is the year of things ending for me, and it's time for me to move on and find new things. I can really kind of focus in on what I want to do now as an adult.”
