No one ever questions or judges them; it’s just what’s happening.
But it’s never addressed, it happens extremely organically, and I like that. “I was like, ‘Yo, good one.’ And [the showrunners were] like, ‘No, we haven’t done that this year.’ Oh fuck!”
Williams opened up to GQ UK in April about how she grew to resent playing Arya during her own coming-of-age as a woman.
It’s not centered around that and they don’t really necessarily label it.
“No one else does either and no one really questions it.”
Director Josh Boone told Entertainment Weekly that he has a personal connection to Rahne's backstory, with the character facing exorcisms in the original comics, an attempt at 'curing' her mutant powers.
“We [both grew up] in the Bible Belt," Boone said.
“Game of Thrones“ showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss were infamous for sending out fake script pages to prank their cast and protect spoilers.
“At first, I thought it was a prank,” Williams said at the time. Would she reprise Arya again in a live-action capacity? "It was as red as it could get back then… I remember watching My Own Private Idaho when I was 11 or 12 and being like, ‘Maybe the people at church are wrong about gay people.’ I always felt a bit like an outsider.
“I’ve certainly had my head put in the toilet when I was a kid at school, had bullies chase us around, had oppressive things that I guess just made me more sensitive to things like that.
Williams had long been under the assumption that Arya identified as queer. “And then I also resented my body, because it wasn’t aligned with the piece of me that the world celebrated.”
Williams reprised the role of Arya for the Warner Bros.-produced video game “MultiVersus,” lending her voice to the character.
From the first time they are in a room together, they’re drawn to each other and I think it’s quite apparent immediately that they like each other as more than friends. Williams told Entertainment Weekly in 2019 that she thought the series’ creators were pranking her when she first read the script in which Arya and Gendry have sex.
So … yeah.
Maisie Williams Thought Arya Was Queer on ‘Game of Thrones’: ‘I Was Surprised’ She Had Sex With a Man

The Truth About Maisie Williams' Dating History
While Maisie Williams kept her relationship status under wraps for a long period, Elle explains that she went public with her current boyfriend in 2019 and they've been serving serious style inspiration ever since.
Tatler writes that Williams is dating founder and creative director Reuben Selby, whoa apparently didn't let the opportunities presented during the pandemic pass him by.
He launched a fashion line and told the publication, "It's something I knew I'd always do. That was a surprise.”
Many “Game of Thrones” viewers also assumed Arya was a queer character, which led to backlash against the decision to have her sleep with a man (Arya could still identify as bisexual, of course). She told Elle that he designed her dress for the Emmys.
"I've always wanted the perfect custom red carpet dress — something that I feel really confident and comfortable in," she said, "I asked Reuben if he would design something with me in mind: my height, my shape, my likes, and insecurities.
"I had them lay down on the floor together, just like as if they were looking up at the stars like they are in the movie ... So we did really act that scene out the way we did when we shot it."
Hunt was also nervous about the experience, but felt like she got the part as soon as she did that scene with Williams. "I think I knew I got the part as soon as we kissed, you know,” said the actress.
And I think if we portray those kinds of relationships that way, they’ll become more normalized in the real world."
For his part, Boone is excited for fans to actually see the pair's romance unfold on screen.
"People ask me what are you excited to see, and yes, [there's] all the cool visual effects and the big fights at the end and all that," said the director. "But just seeing these two girls under the dome looking up is really cool to see in a movie.
They immediately are drawn to each other.
