Game Of Thrones Season 6: 17 Questions After The Brand New Trailer

Wait, Ned Stark's back?

By Michael Potts /

The long-awaited Game Of Thrones Season 6 trailer has dropped, and yes, in case you're in any doubt whatsoever, it was awesome. HBO's glimpse at the new season didn't give too much away, but offered up a whole range of teasers, talking points and of course, a deluge of questions that won't be answered for weeks to come.

We've seen the first glimpses of Jon Snow's cold, lifeless, dead, dead, dead body, Daenerys has been taken out of her comfort zone and thrown into the Dothraki hordes, and that was Bran Stark...standing upright...alongside the Night's King. If that doesn't get you pumped for the new season, nothing will.

There are lingering storylines from Season 5 which still demand answers, and there'll be a host of new threads woven into the show, but based on 101 seconds of shiny new footage, here are the most important questions we're all asking...

17. Who Is The Free-Running Child?

One of the many split-second action clips sees a daring child leaping over a bustling street. The buildings do have a Braavosi look about them, but is it really Arya Stark? If so, that raises further questions over whether she is still blind at this point, or solely using her instincts to zip across gaps.

Another option could be Bran Stark. Yes, I know what you're thinking, Bran is paralysed, though we've been teased with several photos and a clip of the Heir of Winterfell standing again. It may be just a vision or a journey alongside the Three-Eyed Raven, but there's every chance the child could be Bran. A wildcard choice could even be young Rickon Stark who will surely make a return to the series soon.
