8 Things To Know About Maisie Williams

Maisie is known for her brilliant portrayal of Arya Stark on GOT but there’s so much more to her than that one role. She’s a talented young actress, a hilarious and smart girl and a promising young entrepreneur. She’s been in other TV shows and starred in movies, she frequents fashion events, and she started a project called Daisy that is aimed at bringing young talented people together for creative projects and collaborations.

Maisie Williams’ Age

Maisie Williams is 22 years old. She was born in Bristol on April 15, 1997. She’s the youngest of four children in her family. She has two brothers named James and Ted and a sister called Beth. Maisie isn’t actually her given name, it’s a nickname based on a character in The Perishers comics.

Maisie Williams and Game Of Thrones

While Maisie did her best to portray the character of Arya as true to the original as possible she has admitted that she hasn’t read the books. She went to the trouble of learning how to do everything left-handed (like writing and sword fighting) because her mother (who read the books) said Arya’s left-handed, but she just can’t bring herself to read them because of all the gory details. She also can’t really watch the gory scenes on the screen too. It’s quite funny considering she’s on the show, isn’t it?

Maisie Williams’ Height

Maisie is quite a short girl. She’s 155 cm tall, which makes her the shortest of the GOT cast after Peter Dinklage. She’s followed by Emilia Clarke who’s only ever so slightly taller than her at 157cm.
