'Game of Thrones' fan theory suggests the end is near for another huge character

Spoilers aplenty from herein…

A new Game of Thrones fan theory has suggested that the end could be near for Cersei Lannister – and there’s some convincing evidence to back it up.

On Sunday, fans were left to pick up their jaws from the floor after Arya Stark fatally stabbed the Night King with her Valyrian steel dagger, annihilating his army of the dead in the process.

But the unexpected slaying has left fans theorising that Arya could be about to kill another major enemy.

Only moments before Arya killed The Night King, Melisandre was heard to repeat the prophecy she made when her character first met Arya back in season three.

She told Arya that she would “shut many eyes forever. Brown eyes, green eyes… and blue eyes.”

While the blue eyes are believed to be those of The Night King, fans say that the brown eyes belong to Walder Frey – who met a sticky end at Arya’s hands in season six.

So what about the green eyes, then? The theory claims that it’s a reference to Cersei Lannister, who still remains as one of the biggest threats in Westeros.

While there’s little other evidence to back this up, a trailer for Episode Four shows a stronger focus on Cersei, so it’s not entirely beyond the realm of possibility.

It comes after the third episode of the show’s eighth and final season focused on the hugely anticipated Battle of Winterfell.

NME’s review stated: “So, did Game of Thrones choke with ‘The Long Night’? HBO flung a trebuchet full of money at this episode, and yet it somehow didn’t inspire the awe of ‘Hardhome’ or the ‘Battle of the Bastards’, or even Daenerys’s attack on the loot train in ‘The Spoils of War’. Maybe Cersei was right to sit this one out after all.”
