S2 E3: Maisie Williams

When you think of Maisie Williams, the first things that spring to mind are eyebrow injuries, “jabber” swords and hand-stitched dolls, right?The Before The Lights boys have struck gold again as actor, producer and fellow podcaster Maisie delves into her relationship with fitness throughout her career. From growing up on the set of Game Of Thrones to the intense character study for her recent role in Sex Pistols mini-series Pistols, Maisie has a pretty impressive CV of fascinating (and sometimes embarrassing) tales from the set and the gym. Dave, George and Josh hear about how a 12-year-old Maisie learned how to sword fight with her weaker left hand to go full “Daniel Day Lewis” on her role as Arya Stark, and how the show helped shape her understanding of the importance of keeping her mental health in check on and off set. They also uncover an unexpected hobby that helps her switch off between jobs. Maisie also tells the guys about her creative platform Daisie, something she hopes can help give emerging talent the time and space they need to develop their ideas and break into the TV and film industry.This episode was recorded before the sad passing of Pamela Rooke aka Jordan Mooney, who Maisie plays in Pistols. Follow us on Instagram for updates on all aspects of the club.You can also click here to apply for Before The Lights membership.This episode was recorded at Fiction Studios, situated at Before The Lights.
