'Game of Thrones' Season 8 preview: Bran Stark might just be the Red God in an eternal battle with the Great Other

Bran has been travelling back-and-forth in time, and his attempts to stop the Night King might be indicative of him actually being the Red God.
UPDATED MAR 22, 2019

There are several speculations going around how Bran Stark (Isaac Hempstead Wright) might just be the fearsome Night King (Vladimir 'Furdo' Furdik) who finally broke the Wall in Season 7, and is about to enter the land of the living.

While almost all theories point out that Bran is responsible for the Night King and all his deeds, it perhaps skipped our minds that Bran after all might not be the Night King. Instead, the young Stark boy, who was crippled after Jaime Lannister (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) pushed him off the tower in Season 1, might actually be the Lord of the Light or more commonly, the Red God.

As a stark contrast to the Night King, the Red God is the giver of life, in fact it was through the Red God that Melisandre (Carice van Houten) had resurrected Jon Snow (Kit Harington).
