Sophie Turner's New Role: From Thief to Target
Sophie Turner, known for her iconic role as Sansa Stark in Game of Thrones, is stepping into a new venture. She will star in "Steal," an upcoming crime thriller set to premiere on Amazon Prime Video.
From Thief to Victim
This isn't Turner's first foray into the criminal underworld. In 2024, she portrayed a real-life jewel thief in the film "Joan." Now, she's switching sides. In "Steal," she plays Zara, an office worker entangled in a high-stakes heist.
The Heist Unfolds
The story unfolds at Lochmill Capital, a pension fund investment company. Thieves storm in, forcing Zara and her colleague Luke to execute fraudulent trades. The stakes are high—regular people's pensions are at risk.
Enter DCI Rhys, played by Jacob Fortune-Lloyd, a detective with his own demons, including gambling debts, complicating his investigation.
Premiere and Episodes
"Steal" is set to debut on January 21, 2026, with a total of six episodes.
