Video: Game of Thrones creator adds to the rumours about *that* character’s return

Much like Arya Stark as she made her way to Walder Fray’s home for the Red Wedding, it’s the hope that kills you.

It’s either hope or a sword, dagger, lance, poison or strangulation in Game of Thrones. Long may this continue.

Once again, we’re blaring our spoiler alert klaxon from The Wall all the way down to Mereen.

Kit Harrington’s gorgeous head of hair caused the internet to lose its mind in a way that hasn’t been seen since the reign of The Mad King Aerys II Targaryen as speculation is spreading throughout the realm that Westeros’ most beloved bastard will return for Season 6.

It turns out that Game of Thrones creators, Dan Weiss and David Benioff, may have already revealed the biggest secret in Seven Kingdoms.

Back in March, the showrunners were conducting a Q&A panel with Kit Harrington also in attendance.

Ned Stark’s bastard was asked by the audience if he had to play any other character in the show, what would it be? He replied by saying “I’d like to be a warg.

Book readers will know that the last word that Jon Snow uttered before being stabbed in Castle Black was ‘Ghost’, the name of his pet Direwolf.

What’s even more interesting is what Weiss said next. After hearing Harrington’s statement, the Game of Thrones creator said, “Two words for you: Season 6.”

Maybe we’re slightly clutching at straws here, the show has veered away from the books before, but the conversation at the 22:00 mark is extremely interesting.

Do we finally know something?
