Maisie Williams, 'Game of Thrones'

You know her as: Feisty younger Stark daughter Arya

Why we like her: As great as "Game of Thrones" is, the kids -- petulant Joffrey and whiny Sansa in particular -- didn't always come off that well. But Williams is fantastic as the tomboyish but vulnerable Arya and blessed us with one of the great TV lines of 2011: "Stick them with the pointy end."

Where else you've seen her: "Game of Thrones" is the 14-year-old's first on-screen role.

-- Rick Porter, Zap2it
