Jamie survived but Cersi died?
The theory first surfaced online from a Tumblr user by the name of, uh, WeedsAreFlowersToo, who has put together a compelling list of evidence to prove that we'll be seeing Jaime Lannister return before the Game of Thrones ending yet. For one thing, none of the Thrones cast, including Cersei Lannister's Lena Headey, have posted a single tribute to Jaime's actor Nikolaj Coster-Waldau on social media, which typically occurs whenever a fellow performer leaves the show for good.
Then there's the fact that Entertainment Weekly journalist James Hibbard has been conducting exit interviews throughout the season with departing cast members whenever their associated character meets an untimely end, but when asked about the his conversation with Coster-Waldau on Twitter, the writer teased that he was "Holding that one for a bit...".
Put the pieces together, and it's looking very likely that Jaime Lannister didn't suffocate under all those bricks of the Red Keep after all, but could be returning for one last crucial episode. Could the Game of Thrones finale see the Kingslayer become a Queenslayer too? Only a few more days until we find out!
