"Game of Thrones" star Maisie Williams will guest star on BBC America's "Doctor Who", the network announced on Monday.

Williams, beat known for her role as Arya Stark on the HBO drama series, will play someone who challenges the Doctor "in very unexpected ways," executive producer Steven Moffat teased. "This time he might just be out of his depth, and we know Maisie is going to give him exactly the right sort of hell."

Her role is otherwise being kept under wraps.

"I'm so excited to be working on Doctor Who as it's such a big and important part of British Culture," Williams said in a statement. "I can't wait to meet the cast and crew and start filming, especially as we'll be shooting not too far from my home town."

"Doctor Who" returns this fall.

"Doctor Who" fans, prepare to amend your theories about "Game of Thrones" star Maisie Williams’ mysterious role in Season 9.

“She is not playing a returning character,” showrunner Steven Moffat revealed Friday at the Television Critics Association summer press tour in Beverly Hills. “She’s a brand new character. She’s not someone from the Doctor’s past.”

Moffat is confident "Doctor" aficionados will not be disappointed by the reveal.

“Once you see what she’s up to on the show, you’ll appreciate what a clever idea it was,” he said. “It’s a significant role. We’re not just getting star value and throwing it away. It’s a great part, and she’s terrific in it.”
