On April 24, the chain HBO will premiere the sixth season of Game of Thrones and while some returns but will be confirmed, others however could occur and would be a surprise.
With rumours that the series recovers the character of Ned Stark and l Actor Sean Bean (now head of The Frankenstein Chronicles) referred the matter in an interview with host Larry King.
Remembering the fifth season of Game of Thrones , it was first introduced flashbacks (with one dedicated to Cersei ) so that this resource could be reused for the sixth season. Knowing that the series will return to have the character of Bran Stark, rumoured if it is possible that in a flashback of this character could be the return of his father, who died at the end of the first season.
Bean noted in his interview that his return is "uncertain" if you consider that he's dead, but added that if they use the flashbacks is aware that Ned Stark could return even know if you would like him or perhaps a younger actor (considering that at the time it was rumoured that the series could end up having a prequel).
On the other hand, and regardless of flashbacks we know that may Bran Stark use his supernatural ability to see past Poniente and many sources say that a scene was filmed at the Tower of Joy, where it is assumed that Ned plays an important role . However, Sean Bean said that if true, no one has contacted him to film the sequence.
