First look photos show Games of Thrones star in WW2-era drama
Apple TV+'s upcoming series The New Look has confirmed its February 2024 release date, with new images giving a first look at Maisie Williams and the rest of the cast.
The Game of Thrones actress stars in the series from creator Todd A Kessler and focusing on famed designers Coco Chanel (Juliette Binoche) and Christian Dior (Captain Marvel's Ben Mendelsohn) as they navigate the horrors of the war and revolutionise modern fashion.
Williams, known for the role of Arya Stark in HBO's fantasy hit series, is set to play Christian's sister Catherine Dior, a resistance fighter during World War II. And she looks almost unrecognisable in the newly released shot.
