The girl, noticed by the producers during the dance performance, became a part of the most box office series in the history of television. Telenedelya spoke with the young talent of Macy Williams.

We need to give ourselves a breather for Actress for only 20 years, and she has already starred in more than 20 films and series, including Doctor Who and The Love Book, received the Saturn Prize and the prize of the Berlin Film Festival "Best European Young Actor". And to play in the Game of Thrones in the role of a girl who joined the secret society of murderers in order to avenge her father, and having the ability to "put on" the looks of other people, began at the age of 14. With this we started the conversation.

What is it like to grow under the attention of spectators and the press?.

Differently. I, of course, understand that I, like any actor, have certain obligations to the fans and to the producers. For example, standing in front of flashes on the red carpet - in general part of the acting profession, because movies also need to be promoted. When I was younger, I tried to do everything and tried to please everyone.

Now I'm more choosy, and, frankly, I feel better. Sometimes you still need to give yourself a break. I try to reduce my involvement in social life to a minimum, because if there is too much delay, the roof can finally be demolished. When I just started shooting in "The Game of Thrones", I was told: now your life will change abruptly.

And I, frankly, and so everything suited. I enjoyed living with my mother in Bristol. Now I have moved to London, but very often I visit my hometown, I spend time with my family. I admit, in this crazy world of chic limousines sometimes it is so lonely that I try to escape under any pretext to my former, normal life.

I remember in one interview you said that you have a "plan B" - in case the career in the movie does not take place.

Now that I'm firmly on my feet, he probably will not come in handy any more. I am very grateful to my mother for her support.. She always taught me not to be afraid to dream and set big goals. This is something that I would like to wish others: do not be afraid to do what you like. To years later do not look back and do not think: what did I do in life?.

Yes, in our time it's easy to drop your hands: you can not buy housing, study costs a lot of money. For all these problems you can lose the most important thing - the ability to enjoy life. It is necessary to enjoy your favorite occupation - no matter how much money it brings to you.

Your friends in Bristol have a slightly different life. Does this distance you from each other?.

A second, I have friends among the actors! But yes, you are right: mostly my friends are former classmates. Now each of them goes his own way: one boy works as a technical specialist in the school, the other becomes a gardener, a friend at the university studies. Everyone has their own goals in life, but, getting together, we remain the same friends as before. And it's wonderful!.

We have a great time to sift. Now we are working on the last season of the "Game of Thrones". How do you evaluate the game today young Macy Williams in the first episodes of the series?.

Just recently, I revised the first season to appreciate the evolution of the image of my heroine. So, I think, then I played much better. I could not believe my eyes: how could I do it, I did not know anything about the acting profession at all!.

Maybe it's because in his youth a person is more liberated? And the older you become, the more fears there are ... You understand that millions of spectators are waiting for new episodes, and it becomes uncomfortable. And only when you make all these fears shut up, you can play for real.

That's what I said well. (Laughs). ) The main thing - most do not forget these words, when next time I go to the set.

Very soon the ensemble of the "Game of Thrones" will cease to exist. Does this make you sad?.

We splendidly became a family. And these are not just beautiful words. Together we made something big and beautiful - something that will surely leave a trace in history. Passed and through the test crazy popularity. We after all, when we started, and had no idea that such a success would be!.

The creators of the series have an idea to remove the prehistory, but it's also a story about how everything was before our appearance. I think we said everything we wanted. In the end, all good things must ever end. Better than when the viewer looks at the screen and thinks: "Well, how much you can! ".

Do you already know how this story ends?.

Of course! But I will not say - I have no right! (Smiling. ) How to kill two of the hares of Macy, recently you got a new experience - took part in the creation of the animation tape "Wild ancestors". Immediately agreed - or were there doubts?.

Studio Aardman Animations is known all over the world, and Nick Park is one of the best animator directors: he took off "The Chicken Runaway" and "Lamb Shona". When Nick called me, I felt myself in the seventh heaven with happiness! I was always interested in how the cartoons are made, and, naturally, I wanted to sound somebody. So this work I killed two birds with one stone.

At school, my friends and I tried to shoot cartoons ourselves: we took a parental camera, molded dolls from plasticine, tried to revive them. This, of course, is just a child's play compared to what is done at the studio. Animators receive a recording of the character's voice, prescribed features of his movements and facial expressions, and then embody the hero in plasticine.

And you have to mold everything at once so that you do not change it later, otherwise the smoothness of movement. Therefore, every frame they think through to the smallest detail. One of the animators told me that in a day's work it was possible to shoot about twenty seconds. Imagine what a gigantic job!.

Do you look like something to your character Gunu - a first-class football player?.

Discontent and command notes in the voice - here I find myself. And, probably, I'm just as impatient. In the scenes, when Guna out of herself, training the team composed of half-wits, this similarity helped me. But I still tried to create a completely new personality, not like anyone, not even me.

Besides, football is not mine at all! And I'm not even ashamed to admit this. Of course, football in the film is central, but I think the main idea of ??the cartoon is overcoming the impossible, teamwork and mutual assistance.

Now there are many people in the world who are obsessed with football, so the creators of the film, in order to convey their key message, chose a theme close to them.

The experience of previous filming in the movie useful?.

Hard to tell. Now, if I went to a theater school, it would have been useful. And so I had to learn everything on the set of the "Game of Thrones". But of course, it's a sin to complain - I was incredibly lucky to play Arya Stark!.
