Maisie Williams, Miley Cyrus Headline Converse’s Twitter Web Series

Now that the seventh season of Game of Thrones has wrapped up, Arya Stark is headed to Twitter. Maisie Williams, who portrays the headstrong Thrones protagonist, is the first of two celebrities (the other being Miley Cyrus) who will host episodes of Public Access, a web series sponsored by sneaker brand Converse.

Public Access is a chatty, informal show that channels the easygoing feel of the programming tier from which it takes its title. Each 15- to 20-minute installment of the show will be driven by the star power of its host and guests. The premiere episode, which will go live on September 5, will be led by Williams, who will be joined by another young, Emmy-nominated actress: Millie Bobby Brown

of Stranger Things. Both Williams and Brown previously appeared in a Converse campaign that advertised the brand’s Chuck Taylor line.

According to Adweek, the second part of Public Access, hosted by Cyrus, will arrive toward the end of September. A third act is also in the works, though its premiere date is not yet known. Adweek‘s coverage of the series also includes a teaser that features clips from Williams’ episode.

Converse is owned by Nike.
