Maisie Williams, who shot to stardom at 12 with her role as Arya Stark in Game Of Thrones, said that being part of such a popular fantasy show gave her an identity crisis as she was growing up in the spotlight. “I was so lost for so long and I knew that I was, and when I couldn’t pin down what I felt my identity was within that, it brought me a lot of discomfort. Now, I feel a lot more comfortable. It’s hard to even put myself back there and talk about how tough it was because I think it’s done,” Maisie said. The 26-year-old star shared that she felt down when she was tried to break away from her GoT character.

She added, “It was at its absolute worst when I was also out of touch with myself. I think rejection at that point felt so personal, so painful. I’d solely compare myself to other actresses, and the way people looked, and all of the most destructive ways that you can compare yourself.”
