At least one fan favorite character is returning to “Game of Thrones.”
Isaac
Hempstead-Wright, whose Bran Stark sat last season out, confirmed that
he would be returning to the hugely popular HBO series for season 6.
“I
can’t say a lot, but I am back this season, and it’s going to get
particularly interesting with Bran … he has some interesting visions,”
the actor told the Irish Examiner.
Bran Stark, who is one of the
youngest of the children of Ned Stark (Sean Bean) and Catelyn Stark
(Michelle Fairley), has not been seen in the series since the end of
season four. Most of the characters thought he was dead, although
viewers knew that he was actually holed up away from the main action and
is presumably developing his warging abilities (i.e. the power to enter
the mind of an animal and control its actions)
