Despite declarations from Kit Harington and Game of Thrones writers David Benioff and Dan Weiss that Jon Snow is completely dead following the show’s Season 5 finale, the Khaleesi herself has stepped up to give fans a glimmer of hope.
In an interview with MTV’s Josh Horowitz, Emilia Clarke left some leeway as to whether or not the fan favorite would be returning, in line with the many fan theories that that the Lord Commander of the Night’s Watch is not really dead.
Though she acknowledges that the show’s extreme secrecy means that even she is kept in the dark in regards to the future, she also added “I mean, if I had to bet, I’d say there’s a 50/50 chance. I mean, there’s some helpful people there who could bring him on back to life.”
