Game of Thrones: 7 Dead Or Missing Characters Who Could Return

5. Gendry

A prisoner of Stannis and the Red Priestess, the last anyone saw of Gendry he was in a boat headed for King€™s Landing after Davos Seaworth helped him make his escape. His arc in the book differs, and sees him stay with the Brotherhood Without Banners and not meeting Stannis or Melisandre, so if they were to return to the show there€™s every chance Gendry may well turn up with them again. Clearly, he'd have to get over the fact that they sold him. With nothing to suggest at this point that he has perished, and given his bloodline - being a bastard of Robert Baratheon and all - there€™s a chance he will still have more of a role to play before the end of the game. So you can perhaps expect him back. Joe Dempsie, the actor who plays him, tweeted last year that his character was €œstill rowin'.€ Maybe he€™ll eventually get somewhere, or otherwise - like Breaking Bad€™s Huell on that couch - he€™ll be stuck in that boat for eternity.
