Warning: mild spoilers ahead (and one big spoiler if this theory turns out to be true)
Last night’s premiere of Game of Thrones had some shocking moments and laid the framework for what is sure to be a wild ride of a season. But there was one subtle detail that may have severe implications: Sansa’s hair.
When Jon Snow (Kit Harington) held the meeting to unite the kingdoms of the north against the approaching White Walkers, he decided against evicting the traitors who supported Ramsay Bolton from their castles. Snow nobly argues that he doesn’t wish to tear families from their homes by giving the castles to those who were loyal to him. But Sansa (Sophie Turner) says Jon is being weak and setting himself up to get stabbed in the back, just like Ned and Robb.
Just then, a raven delivers a message from Cersei Lannister, and Jon casually ignores her threats.
When this happens, Sansa warns Jon:
“You’re the military man, but I know her. If you’re her enemy, she’ll never stop until she’s destroyed you. Everyone who’s ever crossed her she’s found a way to murder.”
“You almost sound as if you admire her,” replies Jon.
“I learned a great deal from her,” she says.
That’s when people noticed an unsettling detail: Sansa is rocking Cersei’s hairdo.
What’s more, Turner said in an interview that Sansa’s hair reflects “people she’s learning from, or mimicking, or inspired by.”
If Sansa has indeed learned from Cersei and plans to mimic her, that would mean murdering anyone and everyone who disagrees with her. Even Jon Snow.
What do you think, Thrones fans? Is this a hint that Jon Snow is about to find himself in a hairy situation? Or is this just a red herring (or red hair-ing — ha!) designed to throw us off?
