10 Things You Didn't Know About Maisie Williams

8. Her First Acting Role Was Game Of Thrones

Believe it or not, Maisie Williams' very first professional acting role was in fact, Game of Thrones. She had just been turned down for a part in Nanny McPhee 2 and wasn't entirely convinced by Thrones at first. Back in 2011, she told WinterIsComing.net: "My agent Louise Johnston then put me up for an audition for Arya. I have to say that at first I wasn€™t too keen, I was still thinking about Nanny McPhee 2. But all auditions are good experience so I went along and after the first audition in London I knew I wanted to be Arya."
