"Game of Thrones" is currently in between filming for its much-awaited sixth season.
In Northern Ireland, where the show is shooting major scenes involving Winterfell and the Wall, many fans have been keeping an eye on the production's developments. Watchers on the Wall reports a major spoiler involving the fate of the Starks. Actress Sophie Turner, who plays the Sansa Stark, has been spotted on the set last week with Kit Harington, a.k.a. her half-brother Jon Snow. Also spotted on the set was Iwan Rheon, who plays the notoriously sadistic Ramsay Snow/Bolton.
As Realty Today has previously reported, an epic battle scene involving the Northern Houses is being shot in Northern Ireland, and actor Kit Harington has been spotted wearing Stark colors and sporting a sword.
For many fans, this latest report could mean only one thing: Jon Snow is indeed alive and he will finally rescue her little sister Sansa and unite against the Boltons. According to onlookers, this huge battle scene will result in major casualties, and Ramsay Bolton was seen displaying at least two dead characters on X-crosses upside down, in traditional Bolton style. Sources believe this all-important scene, which is beginning to be known as "the battle of six armies" and "the battle of the bastards," will air on season six's episode nine.
In season five, Sansa Stark finally made her way back to Winterfell with the help of Littlefinger (Aiden Gillen), but was married off to the cruel Ramsay Bolton, who did not waste time torturing her. In the finale, she finally managed to escape the grasp of the Boltons by jumping off a tower with her childhood friend Theon Greyjoy (Alfie Allen). Sansa Stark's character has always been beset with tragic circumstances, and many fans have been hoping for a break to show her character's newfound strength. If the sources' reports could be believed, season six can be a game changer for the eldest female Stark.
Speaking of the Starks, the remaining Stark children had a mini-reunion on Friday, Oct. 30. Actors Sophie Turner, Maisie Williams, and Isaac Hemstead Wright gave their fans a treat by posting photos on Instagram of all three of them having a good time over drinks.
In the series, the young stars play Sansa, Arya, and Bran Stark, respectively. While their characters have not seen each other since season two, the three actors are said to be in the same city while filming.
Does this mean the Stark children, who have dealt with nothing but bad news, will finally have a happy ending?
"Game of Thrones" season 6 will premiere in April or May 2016.
