Maisie Williams To Guest Star on DOCTOR WHO

Maisie Williams, best known for her role as Arya Stark on HBO's popular Game of Thrones, will guest star on Doctor Who in it's 9th season. I've read some wild fan speculation on Williams having more than just a simple guest star role. While I think she might be brilliant as a companion, hopefully she's too busy doing The Last of Us, which last we heard was a "Yes."

Here's Williams talking about being on Doctor Who:

“I’m so excited to be working on Doctor Who as it’s such a big and important part of British Culture. I can’t wait to meet the cast and crew and start filming, especially as we’ll be shooting not too far from my home town.”

Steven Moffat, Lead Writer and Executive Producer, chimed in:

"We’re thrilled to have Maisie Williams joining us on Doctor Who. It’s not possible to say too much about who or what she’s playing, but she is going to challenge the Doctor in very unexpected ways. This time he might just be out of his depth, and we know Maisie is going to give him exactly the right sort of hell."

No premiere date for Season 9 of Doctor Who has been announced yet.
