Game of Thrones star Maisie Williams has said she is “excited” to play a queer superhero in love in upcoming X-Men spinoff The New Mutants.
The film will feature a relationship between superheroes Rahne Sinclair (Williams) and Danielle Moonstar, played by Blu Hunt.
Speaking on a panel at Comic Con @ Home, Williams spoke of the importance of representing same-sex love on-screen.
“It was really wonderful to be able to see a relationship look like this,” Williams said.
