[Season six of Game _of Thrones_](http://time.com/4172317/game-of-thrones-season-6-premiere-date-revealed/) isn’t set to return until April 24, but until then, fans can hopefully look forward to more and more hints about what’s in store for the [habitants of Westeros](http://time.com/4162374/bran-stark-first-look-photo-season-6-game-of-thrones/).

[Maisie Williams](http://time.com/4081618/most-influential-teens-2015/) who plays Arya Stark, attended the London Film Critics’ Circle Awards on Sunday night and was named Young British Performer of the Year for her role in _The Falling_. During an interview on the red carpet, the 18-year-old actress was asked about what’s to come on the hit HBO show, specifically with regards to the [fate of Jon Snow](http://time.com/4051136/jon-snow-alive-game-of-thrones-kit-harington/), who we last saw getting stabbed by his Night’s Watch brothers in the closing moments of the season five finale.

“I feel so mean because I speak to people and they’re all like, ‘Jon Snow, is he back?’ And it’s like really heartbreaking because people are like, ‘yeah, but he’s coming back though?,'” Williams said. “It’s a great twist but I can’t say he’s going to be alive.”
