Based on the book by Karen Chapman, the coming-of-age comedy stars “Game of Thrones” alum Bella Ramsey as Lady Catherine, also known as Birdy, a 14-year-old girl with a plucky personality whose father is attempting to marry her off.
Speaking with Entertainment Weekly, Ramsey explained how, despite similar seeming settings, the role is about as far as one can get from her fierce character Lyanna Mormont in “Game of Thrones”.
“It is totally, totally different,” she said. “Even if it’s in the same time, they’re opposite ends of the spectrum. There’s some scripts and characters that you read, and you feel like they’re already in you. That was definitely the case with Birdy.”

Talking about how she instantly connected to the character of Birdy, Ramsey added, “”She’s not much of a rule follower,” she explains. “She’s bold and she doesn’t quite fit the mold. She’s not particularly normal, especially not for her time. I’ve always been a bit weird and Birdy was a bit weird too — and in a way that was so joyful and celebrated.”
Dunham said of the young actress, “Not to be a total cheeseball, but these are the young women that I needed when I was that age. Bella battles against shame in this amazing way, and it would have given me such an incredible sense that the world had a place for me.
