“Game of Thrones” star Maisie Williams has revealed that a long-lost cast member will return on the show’s sixth season — the young Rickon Stark.
The actress, who plays Arya Stark on the popular HBO series, was on air with BBC Radio 1 when someone called in and asked her whether Rickon will make a comeback.
“Ye-es,” she replied. “Yes. Maybe.”
Shortly after, she added, “Yes, we will indeed. … Oh no, I’m literally going to get off the air and someone’s going to e-mail me!”
Rickon, the youngest Stark, was last seen in Season 3, Episode 9 alongside Bran Stark. Bran instructed wildling Osha to bring Rickon to the Last Hearth, the seat of House Umber, whose Lord Greatjon Umber was a great bannerman to the Stark family.
The sixth season of “Game of Thrones” premiered on April 24.
