This was all thrown into disarray when season five closed on a shot of Jon's lifeless eyes staring at the sky as his life's blood pooled beneath him in the snow.
不過，第五季最后的鏡頭是瓊恩·雪諾眼神空洞，盯著天空，倒在了冰天雪地的一片血泊之中，這推翻了粉絲的猜想。

Since the June 14th finale, fans have been desperately scrambling for theories and evidence that Snow survived, clinging to the fact that the red witch Melisandre was present at Castle Black at the time, whose religion appears capable of raising people from the dead.
自6月14日該劇大結局以來，粉絲仍不死心，竭力拼湊瓊恩·雪諾仍然活著的論說和證據，緊緊抓住紅袍女巫梅麗珊卓當時身在黑城堡的事實，而紅袍女巫所信奉的宗教似乎可以起死回生。

Some hope he warged into his direwolf ghost, others swear they saw his eye colour change right before the screen faded to black.
有人希望瓊恩·雪諾附體到了他的冰原狼，還有人斷言就在屏幕變黑前，他們看到瓊恩·雪諾的眼睛變了顏色。

But Kit himself appeared to dash all hopes in an interview with Entertainment Weekly when he insisted showrunners David Benioff and Dan Weiss told him he had very much gone they way of his mother, father and brother.
不過基特·哈靈頓本人在接受《娛樂周刊》采訪時的言論似乎讓這些希望都破滅了，他堅稱制作人大衛·貝尼奧夫和丹·維斯告訴他，瓊恩·雪諾的命運和他的父母和哥哥一樣。

He said he was annoyed when a story leaked that he was getting a raise for season six and had even been optioned for season seven. 'I don't know where it came from, but it was inaccurate in many ways. Quite honestly, I have never been told the future of things in this show, but this is the one time I have. They sat me down and said, "This is how it is."
基特·哈靈頓表示，傳言他在第六季得到更多片酬，甚至已經被選中參演第七季，這讓他比較生氣。“我不知道從哪兒傳出來的消息，不過傳言是大錯特錯的。說實話，沒人告訴我這部劇的未來，唯一的一次就是，制作人讓我坐下來告訴我，‘這就是雪諾的結局’。”
