Game of Thrones: Even Arya thinks GoT has degraded in the end
It always sounds a bit odd, but actors rarely watch the series they’ve been on. Arya actress Maisie Williams recently watched Game of Thrones from start to finish and spoke on her brother’s Twitch stream about how she found the series from the outside.
The HBO series Game of Thrones accompanied us for ten years and felt like the biggest topic on the globe with each season. In the mainstream and in every second conversation after a new episode aired, the story written by George RR Martin was on everyone’s lips. Instead of rising to the Olympus of series, hardly anyone spoke about GoT after the final 8th season – at least not in a positive way.
Season 8 was squashed, ostensibly because series directors David Benioff and DB Weiss wanted to start working on their new Star Wars project as early as possible. The storylines, painstakingly built up over a decade, were dealt with too briefly and were accordingly not well received by the fans. George R.R Martin would have given the series at least two more seasons, to come to a worthy end. Even Arya Stark’s (Maisie Williams) actress now admits that Game of Thrones has slowed down a lot in the end.
“GoT definitely degraded in the end”
“You know, I was re-watching the whole thing recently. Um, it was… It definitely wore off in the end. But it started out really strong,” says Maisie Williams on her brother’s twitch stream. Two years after the series finale, she finally found time to watch the series she starred in from start to finish and comes to a similar conclusion as fans.
Of course she has no regrets. “For the longest time I could never see it from the outside. That’s why I could never say it and I couldn’t understand it either. For the first time it feels good to be proud of it. That was ten years of my life,” she says later. She continued: “It broke my heart when Ned diedbut I knew it was coming,” Williams said, referring to Arya’s father, played by Sean Bean, who was ruthlessly killed in Season 1 (sorry for the spoilers…).
The opportunity to slip into the role of Arya again – in Jon Snow spinoff starring Kit Harington example – did not completely rule out the actress. “It has to be the right time and it has to be the right people,” she said. “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.”
