HBO 'Game of Thrones' Season 8: Ned Stark may still be alive thanks to a Faceless Man
We've seen characters be killed off and brought back to life many times on 'GOT' and it is entirely possible that House leader Eddard Stark may just be alive
'Game of Thrones' has introduced us to many characters both memorable and forgettable but no one can quite match the presence of House leader Eddard Stark aka Ned Stark played by Sean Bean. His presence on screen was a powerful one and his short-lived role is still remembered years after his death on the show.
It is joked that Sean Bean has died a record number of times on screen, about 25 times according to some estimates, though the actual record is currently held by John Hurt who's actually died a whopping 43 times in his career! However, a new theory suggests that Sean Bean may return in season 8 to reprise his role, thereby bringing his number of deaths down to 24.
