11 Comic-Con Announcements The Fanboys Would Love

10. Jon Snow's Game Of Thrones Fate Confirmed

The Announcement: After the finale of Game of Thrones' fifth season left Jon Snow's (Kit Harrington) fate very much up in the air, what a treat it would be if, at the show's panel this year, one of the cast or crew let slip whether Snow survived that brutal stabbing. Why It'd Be Awesome: Well, it's the thing every GoT fan can't stop talking about, in large part because it's also a cliffhanger currently plaguing book readers, too. To hear either way whether Snow will somehow be resurrected or not would be doing fans a merciful duty by this point. How Likely Is It?: 1/10. You can certainly read into the fact that Harrington won't be at this year's panel as proof that he probably survives somehow (usually a major dead cast member returns to the Con one last time for a fond farewell), but HBO would likely kill anyone who tries to resolve the cliffhanger prematurely. Plus, with shooting on season six not beginning until later in the year, it's likely that many of the cast members themselves probably don't know yet.
