Maisie Williams Has a Pretty Hilarious Theory About Game of Thrones and Sophie Turner
Game of Thrones may be coming to an end this year, but the off-screen friendship of Sophie Turner and Maisie Williams will definitely live on. From having matching moments on the red carpet to talking all night long at sleepovers, the Stark sisters have certainly kept their sibling bond going even when the cameras stopped rolling.
In fact, Maisie has a pretty funny theory that the entire eight-season run of the hit HBO series was just a conspiracy for her and Sophie to become BFFs. “It was like one big elaborate thing to find me a best friend. This whole show!” the actor joked with E! News at the premiere for Game of Thrones’s final season.
She’s totally kidding of course, but her friendship with Sophie is definitely the real deal. “It’s been incredible,” Maisie added, telling E! that it’s been so important to have a friend like Sophie during her Game of Thrones journey.
But it hasn’t always been easy; especially when they had to film more ~serious~ scenes together. “You know like when someone’s got little tears because they’re gonna laugh? That’s kind of how I felt the whole time,” Maisie revealed, adding that she was “corpsing” a lot while sharing the screen with Sophie.
While it will definitely be sad to say goodbye to the Stark sisters when Game of Thrones airs its final episode, we have full confidence that the #Mophie legend will keep going. After all, with matching friendship tattoos, an upcoming wedding, and an arsenal of sweet memories between them, we wouldn’t expect anything less.
