First Official Poster For GAME OF THRONES Season 6 Seemingly Confirms The Fate Of 'Jon Snow'
HBO has released the official poster for the sixth season of Game Of Thrones, & with it they've revealed not only the show's return date, but also, the long-speculated fate of Kit Harington's Jon Snow!
Well, as per usual, Game Of Thrones returns for its eagerly-awaited sixth season in April. HBO confirmed the fact earlier this morning with the debut of the first official teaser poster for Season 6. However, as you can see below, the premiere date was the least interesting aspect of the poster...
For months now, fans have debated on whether or not Jon Snow had truly perished at the end of last season or whether we would see him resurrected in the upcoming one, seeking vengeance on those who had wronged him and his family. Eagle-eyed photos of Kit Harington near the Game Of Thrones set (in costume, no less!) more or less gave away the surprise, but now with the poster, HBO has seemingly confirmed that Jon Snow will more than likely appear in the upcoming season, otherwise it would be first time in the show's history where they've used a deceased character to promote an upcoming season.
Check out the poster below:
Summers span decades. Winters can last a lifetime. And the struggle for the Iron Throne continues.
It stretches from the south, where heat breeds plots, lusts and intrigues, to the vast and savage eastern lands, where a young queen raises an army. All the while, in the frozen north, an 800-foot wall of ice precariously protects the war-ravaged kingdom from the dark forces that lie beyond. Kings and queens, knights and renegades, liars, lords and honest men...all play the 'Game of Thrones.'
An original series based on George R.R. Martin's best-selling 'A Song of Ice and Fire' series.
