Sophie Turner on ‘experimenting’: I love a soul, not a gender

Sophie Turner in the film “X-Men: Apocalypse”

English actress Sophie Turner’s “Game of Thrones” character, Sansa Stark, transformed slowly but surely across several seasons.

On learning from “Game of Thrones,” Turner said, “The power of family… is so strong that it can keep people alive. That’s the biggest thing I’ve taken away from the show: Family is everything. I think Papa Stark would be very proud of us.”—OLIVER PULUMBARIT
