Williams wasn't always on the road to becoming a successful actress, with her main passion being dancing. She attended a dancing school and this is where she was introduced to agents and the general world of showbiz. In 2013, she told Vulture: "I still study dance and its definitely something I want to incorporate in the future. Its always been my first love. I just think something about being in front of a live audience when youve finished a big dance that youve been working on for so long I dont think anything can really beat that." It proved to be just another string to Williams' bow as Arya's sword training heavily incorporated 'dance' in its style.
