Game of Thrones Season 6 is set to air in spring 2016. As fans patiently waiting for the upcoming season, many speculations about who is going to die next are spreading online. Now, we'll give you the latest roundup of news about Game of Thrones Season 6 premiere date, TV schedule, cast and spoilers.

The latest teaser for the sixth season of Game of Thrones has left fans fearing that more of their favorite characters might die.

Set at the Hall of Faces, the first seconds of the clip show the dead characters from the previous seasons, such as Ned Stark, Rob Stark, Catelyn Stark and King Joffrey. Surprisingly, Jon Snow (Kit Harrington) is also there, leading fans to speculate that maybe he is really dead. After that, characters that are still alive such as Tyrion Lannister (Peter Dinklage) come into view in the crypt.

Additionally, other fan favorites like Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke) and Sansa Stark (Sophie Turner) appear in the promotional video.

Game of Thrones is known for its unpredictable plotline. One of the best example is the unceremonious death of Ned Stark in Season 1. Given that he was one of the main characters in the TV show, it seemed that Ned would not actually die.

When George R.R. Martin was asked if Tyrion Lannister would die in the upcoming season, "Well, I did cut off his nose, so..." he told in Hollywood Reporter. The author went on to say, "deaths are important and at all times necessary."

With that information, it seems that no one is safe in Game of Thrones season six.

It is also worth noting that the TV will overtake the books. Therefore, both TV viewers and book readers don't have an idea about what will happen in the next season. We're now heading into "uncharted territory", according to an article from The Verge.

Meanwhile, many fans are asking about the return of Bran Stark. In the fifth season, the Stark child did make an appearance. With the recently released photos, it is now confirmed that the character will return in the new season. According to Isaac Hempstead-Wright, who plays the character, fans should expect some mystical scenes in the brand-new season.

All will be revealed on April 24 when Game of Thrones' sixth season premieres on HBO.
