"It's a great twist, but I can't say he's going to be alive," the 18-year-old actress revealed to E! Online.

Besides, Movie News Guide reported that this revelation from Williams has given rise to speculations about Snow's linkage with the upcoming new season 6, which will feature bits and parts from the "Winds of Winter" novel, due to be released soon.

The "Game of Thrones" season 6 is slated to be released on April 24, 2016, while "Winds of Winter" novel's availability has yet to be announced.
