'Game of Thrones' Sansa Stark may have taken time to come into her own, but Sophie Turner has always been a badass

'Game of Thrones' star Sophie Turner recently opened up about pay parity and a special clause that she adds to her contracts, which proves why she has always been a badass
UPDATED APR 2, 2019

'Game of Thrones' star Sophie Turner is the talk of the town with her show coming to an end. One of the most anticipated finales, 'Game of Thrones' season 8 which will premiere on April 14, will see Sansa Stark at the height of power as the Lady of the North. She has taken over the reins of the Stark family after Jon Snow heads out to face the white walkers. Sansa's character has grown from a child who wanted to fit into the expectations of the society and be a 'lady' to wanting power, understanding politics and becoming one of the key players in the fight for the Iron Throne. Sophie in real life, however, has always stayed above stereotypes and social expectations — Be it when she got engaged at 21, or speaking out about pay disparity — only proving that she is the bomb!
