Maisie Williams may be best known as Game of Thrones' Arya Stark, but the Brit star is branching out with a big screen role in Carol Morley's drama The Falling.
Centred around a fainting epidemic that occurs at an all-girls school in the late '60s, the film sees Williams flexing her dramatic muscles playing the troubled Lydia opposite newcomer Florence Pugh and Maxine Peake.
Digital Spy sat down with Williams to chat about her role in The Falling and becoming a geek heroine thanks to her roles in Thrones and Doctor Who.
We also quizzed her on the much-buzzed about film adaptation of The Last of Us, which could see Williams play lead character Ellie.
The Falling opens in UK cinemas on April 24.
