The "Game of Thrones" Season 6 finale, as the series is wont, will come with a major death and it may be of a Lannister. Meanwhile, as Sansa Stark (Sophie Turner) wrote Littlefinger (Aidan Gillen) for help, fans wonder if the "Battle Of The Bastards" and the "Game of Thrones" Season 6 finale, "Winds Of Winter," will see Jon Snow (Kit Harington) dead again.
Refinery29 cites a theory by Redditor Redough that Jaimie Lannister (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) may find himself in a position where he has to kill the Queen Bee herself, Cersei (Lena Headey) as the "Game of Thrones" Season 6 finale unfolds. The media outlet points out that this theory could hold water if events with Cersei and Jamie Lannister leading up to the "Game of Thrones" Season 6 finale ties in with Daenerys Targaryen's (Emilia Clarke) vision of a ruined throne room at the House of the Undying.
In the "Game of Thrones" Season 6 finale theory, Aerys's wildfire bomb could make a reappearance with Cersei Lannister at the helm. The "Game of Thrones" Season 6 events could be such that Jamie Lannister may find himself between a rock and a hard place with no other recourse but to kill Cersei.
Meanwhile, Entertainment Weekly reports that the "Game of Thrones" Season 6 finale, "Winds Of Winter" will be preceded by "Battle Of The Bastards." This "Game of Thrones" Season 6 finale precursor is expected to finally give the arena to the anticipated showdown between Ramsay Bolton (Iwan Rheon) and Jon Snow.
However, the placement of "Battle Of The Bastards" before the "Game of Thrones" Season 6 finale is curious and has fans on tenterhooks. Rather than have the face-off as the "Game of Thrones" Season 6 finale so Jon Snow could ride off into the sunset, fans are worried that Kit Harington's character may be in for another death.
Grounds are certainly shifting much as allegiances are in preparation for the "Game of Thrones" Season 6 finale, beginning with the unlikely alliance between Sansa and Littlefinger. The "Game of Thrones" Season 6 finale, "Winds Of Winter" will air on HBO with a run-time of 69 minutes on June 26, preceded by the 60-minute Episode 9 "Battle Of The Bastards" on June 19.
