Maisie Williams on the Traumatic ‘The New Look’ Premiere, and How Far She Went to Portray Catherine Dior


'Game of Thrones' alumni Maisie Williams talks about researching her role as Catherine Dior in Apple TV+'s 'The New Look' — and getting her head shaved on screen.

In the opening episodes of Apple TV+’s new series “The New Look,” famed fashion icons Christian Dior and Coco Chanel, who stand at two very different points in their celebrated careers, writhe and struggle within the militarized and moral confines of Nazi-occupied Paris. Dior (Ben Mendelsohn) is reluctantly enlisted to create ball gowns for the wives of Nazi officers, and Chanel (Juliette Binoche) finds herself drawn to the privileges –– and safety –– of being in the enemy’s good graces. That’s where the three-episode premiere finds Catherine Dior ( Maisie Williams), the younger sister and original muse of Christian, who is a prominent figure in the city’s covert French Resistance alongside her boyfriend, Hervé (Hugo Becker).
