Nobody believed in her: how the female knight from Game of Thrones became popular

The actress has traveled a thorny road to success.

Actress Gwendolyn Christie was remembered by most viewers for her role as Brienne of Tarth in Game of Thrones. Participation in this show for the actress was a real breakthrough, because few believed in her success.

Already at the age of 14, her height reached 180 centimeters, which made her stand out among her peers. As a child, she was often ridiculed by classmates, but does not hold a grudge. A strong character helped the future star not to pay attention to this.

Despite her unusual appearance, she decided to enter the London Drama Center. As reported by Adme, mentors said it would be difficult for her to get a job because she doesn’t look like other actresses.

Success in the cinema and the truth did not immediately sink in. She worked as a model, assistant and even walked dogs. The debut was the little-known fantasy drama The Time Surgeon, and the real breakthrough was the role of Brienne of Tarth in the TV series Game of Thrones. After that, the artist began to be called for many projects. The last popular was the series “Wednesday”, where she played the headmistress of the school.
