Gwendoline Christie is the actress for Brienne of Tarth in Game of Thrones. She stands at 6 feet 3 inches tall and took swordfighting, horseriding, and stagefighting lessons for her part, as well as gaining 14 pounds of muscle, to accurately portray Brienne. (x)

She was also terrified of cutting her hair because she’d spent her life believing it was one of the only things that would make people see her as feminine despite her height. In an interview with TV Guide she said:

I struggled for a long time with [cutting] my hair, but then I’m grateful for the opportunity to realize that femininity doesn’t have to come from hair or any of those traditional female archetypes of appearance, So, that’s been exciting actually. I can’t speak with any kind of authority whatsoever because I’m just an actor and I only have my opinions, but I do think it’s really refreshing to have a woman depicted on a mainstream TV show that doesn’t obey typical aesthetics of females and the way they have been portrayed in the past. And I’m really excited to be portraying one of those women. And I hope that her popularity signals a greater expansion of people’s views about men and women and that gender types can be more flexible.

So I really, really liked the new Man of Steel movie, thought it was awesome. But now I just really, really want a GOOD Wonder Woman movie. It can be done! I believe it’s possible! It will:

  • not sexually objectify her
  • honour her backstory by addressing why, exactly, women would want to have an island of their own, and including all the wonderful Amazon history
  • have a minimal or believable love interest that is 1. not the hero or rescuer 2. not more important than her 3. actually understandable why he is the love interest
  • real and gritty story line like the new Batman and Superman movies have been

ONE DAY I WILL HAVE THIS. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE
