I'll be thrilled when Season Six of HBO's GAME OF THRONES is here, and that's not just coming from a die-hard fan of the series. That's also coming from someone who has grown weary of all the speculation over what Jon Snow's fate will be as we head out into the unchartered waters of Westeros. I can't wait until we can allow the series to answer those questions once and for all definitively and we can finally move past all the speculation and guesswork and, in turn, all the teasing double-speak that comes with it to fuel those conversations.
Kit Harington is at such talk again, feeding the "Is he or isn't he" frenzy with his latest comments to Time Out London about Jon Snow's status for Season Six.
Mind you… if you don't want to know anything, now is the time to break off as this should be considered SPOILER TERRITORY.
Look, I’m not in the show any more. I’m definitely not in the new series…. I filmed some scenes of me being dead – [jokily] it’s some of my best work… I know how long I’m a corpse for, but I can’t tell you that!
Does that really tell you anything? Nope. Does it give you enough to come up with your own theories and plenty more speculation? Yep. Winter is coming, so keep driving yourself crazy over all this until it gets here.
GAME OF THRONES returns to HBO for Season Six on April 24.
