1) The Return Of Jon Snow
The showrunners denied it, Kit Harington denied it, fans thought maybe it was too good to be true on such a nihilistic show – but all signs point to Jon Snow somehow being brought back to life on season 6 of Game Of Thrones.
Even setting aside the fact that there’s almost certainly more for Jon to do in the books (where his ultimate fate is far more ambiguous anyway), Harington has been sighted multiple times on the Belfast set, as well as out and about with some of his castmates, still sporting that curly Jon Snow Barnett. Plus, the actor actually seemed to confirm that he’d be returning in a recent interview with a Dutch magazine.
Pending an official announcement on the matter, you can rest assured that everyone’s favourite bastard will be back next year. How that happens remains to be seen – but I don’t think Melisandre’s arrival at Castle Black right before the knives came out was a coincidence, do you?
