There are several Game of Thrones theories out there but one certainly stands out for being outrageous and convincing at the same time. The theory suggests that Bran Stark will eventually be revealed as the Night King in Season 8. Not surprisingly, Isaac Hempstead Wright is aware of this idea and has spoken up about the speculations.
Wright was recently a guest on Jimmy Kimmel Live where the host tried to get him to reveal some spoilers. Kimmel immediately asked the young actor if his character is "100% good" and Wright had his own interesting response.
"I think he's the Three-Eyed Raven, who is definitely on the side of the living," he said. This is when Kimmel mentioned that several fans believe that Bran is the Night King.
"Yeah, I've heard this," Wright replied before stating, "I can neither confirm or deny."
At this point, Kimmel decides to back away since Wright already confirmed that Bran is on the side of the living. However, the actor added something that might spoil the truth about the icy villain.
"Who says the Night King's dead?" Wright said before begging HBO for help.
Wright also admitted that Bran's creepy stare has a lot to do with him not being allowed to wear glasses while filming.
"I could remember I was filming this one scene in Season 7 with Sophie Turner who plays Sansa and she said to me, 'Isaac, your stare is like you're staring into my soul' and I was like, 'I can't see you,'" he shared.
That might be concrete evidence that Bran isn't the Night King after all.
