Sophie Turner is best known for her work in Game Of Thrones and the X-Men series, but here are some of her other roles. Alongside fellow cast members Kit Harington and Maisie Williams, Sophie Turner was a total unknown when she was cast as Sansa Stark on Game Of Thrones. Turner was 14 when she joined the show, with the character being one of the few to survive from the beginning to the finale. Sansa experienced some horrific trauma over the show's eight seasons, including witnessing the death of loved ones, though the show was criticized for its handling of the character's sexual abuse during her marriage to Ramsay Bolton.
Sansa ended Game Of Thrones as a very different character than the first season, with the finale seeing her crowned Queen in the North. The show quickly became a worldwide smash, leading to plenty of work opportunities for Sophie Turner. She played the lead in her first movie Another Me, a doppelganger thriller about a teenager haunted by the spirit of her unborn twin. Despite a decent hook and a supporting cast that included Rhys Ifans and Jonathan Rhys Meyers, it received poor reviews.
Sophie Turner followed Another Me with 2015's Barely Lethal, an action-comedy co-starring Hailee Steinfeld and Samuel L. Jackson. Her next big franchise came with 2016's X-Men: Apocalypse, playing a young Jean Grey. The movie itself received mixed reviews, as did Turner's performance, though it was a solid success and teased Jean would play a much better role in the next entry.
Sophie Turner followed Apocalypse with Josie, where she played the title role. This 2018 neo-noir, which involves a high school student growing close to Dylan McDermott's security guard, though he's unaware of her link to his past. While it received good reviews for both Turner's and McDermott's performances, the script and languid pacing were cited as issues. She next co-starred with Asa Butterfield in comedy Time Freak, where a teenager invents a time machine and tries to "fix" a failing relationship after his girlfriend dumps him.
Sophie Turner returned as Jean Grey for 2019's X-Men: Dark Phoenix, which put her character front and center. The movie proved to be the final installment of the franchise before its upcoming reboot in the MCU, but despite Turner putting in strong work, weak reviews and a general lack of audience interest saw it become a box-office bomb. She also received praise for her performance in Quibi's fittingly titled drama Survive, where she and Corey Hawkins play the only two survivors of a plane crash that strands them on a mountain.
