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.

Sophie Turner Addresses Kit Harington Making More Money Than Her for 'Game of Thrones'


Sophie Turner and Kit Harington have been co-stars for, it’s safe to say, a while now: Game of Thrones‘ eighth and final season is premiering on April 14, and although we have so many questions about what’s to come on the hit show, there’s a 0% chance we’re going to be getting any satisfactory answers until each episode unfolds. (However, you can bet that this hasn’t stopped fans from coming up with plenty of theories about what’s going to happen.) There’s one thing that can be cleared up, though, and that’s the matter of why Turner, who plays Sansa Stark, and Harington, who plays Jon Snow, aren’t getting paid the same for the work they do on the show.

In an industry where there are headline-making gender pay gaps—remember when Michelle Williams reportedly got paid less than $1,000 while Mark Wahlberg got $1.5 million for a movie reshoot?—discrepancies like this are beginning to receive extra scrutiny. Turner was recently asked by
Harper’s Bazaar UK about her views on the difference between her and Harington’s paychecks for the show. Asking for equal pay on set, she told the magazine, is “a little tricky. Kit got more money than me, but he had a bigger storyline. And for the last series, he had something crazy like 70 night shoots, and I didn’t have that many. I was like, ‘You know what… you keep that money.'”

As The Hollywood Reporter wrote in 2014 about negotiations for the show’s seventh season, the cast—among the highest-paid on cable TV—is divided into tiers to determine compensation: Tier A includes the main roles, played by actors including Harington, Lena Headey (Cersei Lannister), and Emilia Clarke (Daenerys Targaryen). Tier B includes Turner and Maisie Williams (Arya Stark); and there’s another tier beyond that’s filled by actors with smaller roles.

But Turner’s still been able to wield her influence to advance equality behind the scenes: As she told Harper’s Bazaar UK, she has an inclusion rider in her contract, which stipulates that the male/female ratio of a project’s workforce is an even 50-50. And when there’s so much work to be done in the industry, every step forward counts.

This New Sophie Turner and Maisie Williams Interview Adds Fuel to a Big ‘Game of Thrones’ Theory


When I wake up in the morning, my first thought is, Who’s going to win the Iron Throne on Game of Thrones? OK, that’s an exaggeration, but I am curious, as are the millions of people who watch Game of Thrones. Last week we published a theory positing that it’s Daenerys Targaryen who ends up on the Iron Throne when it’s all said and done. But it’s a new day, and there’s a new theory suggesting that—wait for it—Sansa Stark nabs the throne by the series finale.

The evidence? A new Rolling Stone interview with Sophie Turner (Sansa) and Maisie Williams (Arya). What Turner says and Rolling Stone writes both suggest things turn out well for Sansa in the GoT finale. Read this excerpt, below:

“The things that girl has gone through are just unbelievable and
awful,” [Turner] says. Sansa’s was a slow journey toward mastery of her
environment; she was always smarter than she might have seemed, with
Turner showing us just how acutely she examined her world through
crystalline blue eyes.

This might not seem like much, but pair it with this excerpt in which we learn Turner was so happy with the GoT ending, she hung up the storyboard of the final scene in her house:

She was particularly moved when [showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss] presented her with a
storyboard of their favorite Sansa scene, which happened to be her
very last scene of the entire show. Tur­ner already has it hanging at
home; no one’s noticed.

So what in that scene was so exciting it propelled Turner to display it proudly? Winning the Iron Throne, perhaps? At this point, it’s the only explanation that comes to my mind.

Of course, this is all hearsay, but compare it with what Emilia Clarke (Daenerys) said last year about how Game of Thrones ends for her character. “It fucked me up,” she told Vanity Fair. “Knowing that is going to be a lasting flavor in someone’s mouth of what Daenerys is.”

It’s clear from this Clarke is not pleased with Daenerys’ trajectory, which means the Iron Throne probably isn’t in her cards. That leaves it wide open for Sansa Stark, and I hope she claims it.

We’ll find out the answer for sure when Game of Thrones returns Sunday, April 14, at 8:00 P.M. on HBO.

Priyanka Chopra, Sophie Turner, Nick Jonas, and Joe Jonas Are on Another Fabulous Vacation Together


Priyanka Chopra, Nick Jonas, Sophie Turner, and Joe Jonas continue to be living their best lives…and thankfully documenting it all for us to see on social media. The couples—along with fellow Jonas Brother, Kevin, who attended without his wife, Danielle—spent a day on a yacht in Miami, relaxing and filming impromptu “Sucker” videos.

This isn’t the first time the group has vacationed together, of course. The foursome spent the holidays together skiing in Switzerland. They love to double date everywhere from the U.S. Open in New York to romantic dinners in London. Then there was Chopra’s Amsterdam bachelorette party, where she and Turner dubbed themselves the “J Sisters.” Not to mention, Chopra and Nick’s lavish wedding ceremonies and parties in India last fall.

Now the unofficial “Sucker” world tour is hitting south Florida. Nick posted a photo of the crew with the caption, “Friends and rare days off on a Monday.”

Chopra, whose YouTube series “If I Could Tell You Just One Thing” debuts on March 27, said it was the “Best day off ever!!! @nickjonas @joejonas @sophiet #jsisters ❤️☀️???”

They took to dancing on their yacht to, what else, “Sucker.”

They also threw on Kacey Musgraves‘ “Golden Hour.”

And Joe serenaded the boat with a solo number.

Thanks to one of Nick’s posts, it seems they might be in town shooting a new Jonas Brothers video. No word on whether Turner and Chopra will be making another appearance.

Newlyweds Chopra and Jonas couldn’t help but get a little romantic, as they’re known to do. Chopra captioned a sweet photo of the couple kissing, “Making hay while the sun shines.. ☀️” While Jonas wrote, “You are my sunshine my only sunshine… #miami.”

Let it never be said that this group doesn’t know how to let loose and have a good time.

‘Game of Thrones’ Star Sophie Turner Chugs Wine at a Hockey Game ‘For the Starks’


We’re less than a month out from the premiere of the final season of Game of Thrones. While we don’t know who will reign on the Iron Throne when all is said and done, Sophie Turner is out here doing her best to reign over our hearts. She’s starring in Jonas Brothers videos, slamming Piers Morgan over his tweets about mental health, and skiing with future sister-in-law Priyanka Chopra.

Now she’s chugging wine in the name of the Starks (her Game of Thrones family, for the uninitiated). Turner and her fiancé, Joe Jonas, were attending a New York Rangers game when she was shown on the Jumbotron screen. Instead of shying away from the camera, Turner did a little dab move, raised a fist and her glass of red wine, which she then downed as the crowd went wild. Even wine-loving queen Cersei Lannister would have to admit she’s proud of Sansa in that moment.

Turner posted a video of the stunt on Instagram with the caption, “Send it for the starks ?.”

Her comments section quickly lit up like a who’s who of Hollywood. “Hahahhaha ammmmmazing,” wrote Vanessa Hudgens. Drake said, “Wow inspiration for 2020 and beyond.” Ashley Graham dubbed Turner “my girl.” Meanwhile, the JoBros weighed in on a Barstool Sports post of the same video, as captured by Comments By Celebs. “Oh my god,” Nick said. Joe kept it simple with the ? emoji.

Instagram

As with all things GoT, there will surely be a Reddit thread dedicated to theorizing what Turner’s caption tells us about Sansa’s fate on the show. But whatever happens to the Stark family and Winterfell, Sansa will be with Turner forever. “When I started playing Sansa Stark on Game of Thrones, I was 13,” she said recently. “Now the series has finished filming and I’m 23, so it feels like I grew up with the character. She’s part of me.”

The Jonas Brothers Release a Video for their New Song "Sucker" Starring Priyanka Chopra, Sophie Turner, and Danielle Jonas


The Jonas Brothers are back, baby. The trio dropped their new single and accompanying video for “Sucker” at midnight—and it stars three very important women in their lives: Priyanka Chopra, Sophie Turner, and Danielle Jonas.

The song is an ode to being so head over heels for someone you’ll do anything they ask. With lyrics like “I’m a sucker for you / Say the word and I’ll go anywhere blindly / Any road you take you know that you’ll find me” and “You’re making the typical me / Break my typical rules,” the JoBros are putting their love for their partners on display. Chopra and Nick Jonas got married last year; Game of Thrones star Turner and Joe are engaged; and Danielle and Kevin have been married since 2009 and have two children together.

The women take on co-starring roles in the video, as well, set at a lavish party at a European manor. There is serious fashion, lots of dancing, drinking champagne in bathtubs, and what appears to be a low-key bondage moment where Joe is tied up as Turner looks on.

“This is the first time we’ve worked together but not for a moment did it feel like work,” Chopra wrote on Instagram. ‘Such a fun family affair…#JonasBrothers and the #JSisters cheering each other on! Proud of you husband.” Turner and Danielle also gave shout-outs to their “J Sisters,” the nickname the women have given themselves on social media.

Fans are naturally freaking out on social media, too.

And they were very much here for the fact that the JoBros featured the loves of their lives in the video. “Wow who knew Danielle, Priyanka and Sophie are my new favorite Jonas brothers???” wrote one user. “The jonas brothers using their wives in the Sucker music video is the content i’m here for,” said another.
