Calling all Game of Thrones fans: It looks like we haven’t seen the last of Arya Stark Maisie Williams. The 22-year-old actress just landed a role in a new comedy series for Sky in the U.K.
Titled Two Weeks to Live, the six-parter is described as "a comic tale of love and revenge born from a seemingly harmless prank that goes terribly wrong." Williams will star as Kim Noakes, whose father died when she was a young girl due to some suspicious circumstances. Not long after, her mother takes her away to a remote rural life of seclusion.
She sets out into the real world on a secret mission to honor her father’s memory. She meets socially awkward Nicky in his brother Dave’s pub, and after a prank goes wrong, their lives are in danger.
Written by Gaby Hull (“Cheat”), the original series was commissioned by Zai Bennett, the pay-TV platform’s managing director for content, and comedy chief Jon Mountague.
