Game Of Thrones Season 8: 20 Biggest Unanswered Questions & Mysteries

3. Who Will Die?

It's the final season of Game of Thrones, one of the most bloodthirsty shows on TV. The enemy is basically death. It almost goes without saying that LOTS of characters need to die this year, but the question is who will fall by the wayside?

At this point, there's not really anyone who can be considered completely safe. Even the likes of Jon and Dany, who are the main characters (and one of whom has already died once), could feasibly be killed again. And below them in the ranks, anyone could go. It's likely the villains will be killed off - Cersei, Euron, the Mountain - but we'll also have to lose a lot of the good guys too, from supporting fan-favourites such as Bronn and Tormund, to bigger players like Jaime. The question probably shouldn't even be who'll die, but instead who'll actually be left standing?
