2. Tommen

Likely Outcome: Death by proximity to his mother.

He's boring, pathetic and mostly annoying, but you still have to feel some sympathy for the young Lannister king. By virtue of simply existing he has a death sentence.

If the trailers are as clear as they initially seem (it's not always the case, of course), then Cersei will attempt to get her King back on his horse. She might be a controlling, over-protective mother, but it would appear that Cersei believes that pushing Tommen into his kingly role is the only way to protect her family's legacy.

Unfortunately, she's barking up the wrong tree. Tommen is no more a king than Hordor is a town cryer, and her attempt to make something of him will ultimately leave the Iron Throne vacant.
