After an impressive performance as 'Arya Stark' in 'Game of Thrones', Maisie Williams is all set to feature next in a Sky original comedy 'Two Weeks to Live.'According to the Hollywood Reporter, the series can be described as "a comic tale of love and revenge born from a seemingly harmless prank that goes terribly wrong."
The digital series is penned by Gaby Hull and will be produced by Kudos, part of Endemol Shine UK.
The plot of the series revolves around Kim Noakes (played by Williams), "a strange young misfit who was just a little girl when her father died in murky circumstances"
Following his death, her mother whisked her away to a remote rural life of seclusion and bizarre survival techniques.
While in her childhood, "Kim sets out into the real world for the first time to begin a secret mission of honoring her father's memory," Sky said.
"Meanwhile, socially awkward Nicky isn't good at impressing girls, and when Kim walks into his and brother Dave's local pub, it sets in motion a chaotic series of events that puts all their lives in danger. Who would have thought a few drinks and an ill-judged prank could go so violently wrong?"
