Maisie Williams talks about 'Game of Thrones' spinoff series

Maisie Williams recently got candid and opened up about whether she will reprise her role in the Game of Thrones spinoff series.

The Guardian newspaper published her interview on Sunday, September 6, where she admitted that she is well aware of reports that BBC is working on a Game of Thrones spinoff that will revolve around her character Arya Stark.

Williams told the outlet, “I saw that, too! I was like, ‘Huh?’” adding that she does not know if she will be cast again as Ayra.

She said, “I don’t know, really. She would have to be developed in some way because I feel like I’ve changed so much, and I feel like what people loved about Arya is that she was always a child doing things that were quite grownup.”

Notably, this comes after Williams revealed that her 20s were a challenge for her, as she could not figure out what she would do after the end of Game of Thrones, which concluded in 2019.

The Practical Magic 2 star shared, “The first half of my 20s was just hell, but I think maybe it is for a lot of people. I think that has more to do with the fact that Game of Thrones was ending, and I didn’t know what I was going to do next, and I just needed a break, to be honest with you.”

“And then it also has to do with delayed teenage awkward years and figuring a lot of things out that I felt like maybe I couldn’t do much earlier than that. And also COVID, and also an industry strike,” Maisie Williams explained.

It is pertinent to mention that Game of Thrones, an American fantasy drama television series created by David Benioff and D. B. Weiss for HBO, which started in 2011, ran for eight seasons.
