“It has to be right in the context of all the other spinoffs and the universe of ‘Game of Thrones.’ It has to be the right time for me.” “It has to be the right time and the right people,” she said. And then I also resented my body, because it wasn’t aligned with the piece of me that the world celebrated.” “I never did, but I could have [read the scripts],” James said. “It kinda popped off,” Maisie said. It was 10 years of my life.”

Game of Thrones star Maisie Williams has shared her thoughts on the iconic show now that she's rewatched it.

[far from alone in her thoughts](https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2471884/the-game-of-thrones-writers-after-years-of-great-work-deserve-better-than-this-petition) on where the series that made her a star began and where it ended.
