Who Will Win the Iron Throne?  by [Cady Lang](https://time.com/author/cady-lang/)  ## Cady Lang Mar 18, 2019 6:19 PM UTC If there’s anyone who’s been a figure of unrequited love on [_Game of Thrones_](http://time.com/5517025/game-of-thrones-binge-watch-recaps/)_,_ it’s been [Ser Jorah Mormont](http://time.com/5539248/game-of-thrones-season-8-who-is-alive/), who will do anything for his queen, Daenerys Targaryen, despite seeing her romantic interludes with others. So it’s fairly significant that the Westerosi knight (or rather, Iain Glen, the actor who plays Jorah) has weighed in favorably on her latest romance with none other than Jon Snow. In an interview with [_Entertainment Weekly_](https://ew.com/tv/2019/03/18/game-of-thrones-ser-jorah-jon-snow/)_,_ Glen shared that he thinks that Jorah has now made peace with never being seen as a viable romantic partner for Daenerys. > [](https://twitter.com/fabituitou/status/1106720733248536576) “I don’t know what people perceive,” Glen said. “But in my mind, there was a significant shift when he lost her love and made this journey to try and win it back; once he won her favor again and was in her orbit. Of course, there has always been a profound love there but him wanting a reciprocal physical love has gone and he was just happy to be with her.” He also said that he believes that Jorah generally approves of Daenerys and Jon being together. “He believes in Jon Snow like a lot of people do and has gotten to know him in their travels together last season,” he said. “He thinks he’s a good match with Daenerys best interests in mind. It’s a complicated emotion, but I think he feels that they would be a good unification and he’s basically supportive.” With Jorah’s blessing, here’s to watching how Jon and Daeny’s romance plays out in the eighth and final season of _Game of Thrones,_ which premieres on April 14. ## Transcript [00:00] [ MUSIC ] [00:05] After a nearly 20 month hiatus, Game of Thrones is set [00:08] to return for it's eighth and final season on April 14th. [00:11] As the highly anticipated conclusion draws near, [00:13] predictions about how the show will end are flying [00:14] Throughout Game of Thrones' eight year run, the [00:18] central question has always been, who will end up on [00:20] the Iron Throne? Some fans predict that the final [00:23] season will actually conclude with either the literal or [00:25] figurative destruction of the throne. When all is said [00:29] and done, is it possible than no one, and we don't [00:31] mean Arya, will rule over the Seven Kingdoms? If the [00:33] throne is still standing at the end of season eight. [00:36] There are a number of remaining power players who [00:37] can still win it. While Cersei Lannister currently wears [00:42] the crown, there are several prophecies that seem to [00:44] be working against her, including Maggy the Frog's [00:47] prediction that another, younger, more beautiful queen [00:50] will come to cast her down and take all she holds dear. [00:52] That certainly sounds a lot like Daenerys to us, but [00:55] both Sansa and Arya Stark have a score to settle with [00:57] Cersei as well. Meanwhile, Red Priestesses of the Lord [01:00] of Light have declared both Daenerys and Jon to be [01:02] the Prince Who was Promised, a prophesied savior who [01:07] is the reincarnation of legendary hero Azor Ahai. Who [01:09] is destined to lead the people against the darkness, [01:11] which we can only assume is a reference to the White [01:13] Walkers. [ MUSIC ] While, the common interpretation of [01:16] the prophecy seem to make John the more likely [01:20] candidate. Daenerys' right hand woman, Lassonde [01:21] pointed out that the word, Prince, is considered [01:23] gender neutral in high Valerian. [ MUSIC ] Meaning, [01:27] the proper translation is the Prince or Princess, who [01:30] was promised. This is an important distinction. [01:32] Especially, considering that some fans believe, there's [01:35] evidence to believe The Mother of Dragons is actually [01:37] the chosen one. But, hold up, what about the Knight [01:40] King? If neither John nor Danny manages to take down [01:45] the later of the Night Walkers who is now in possession [01:46] of his very own ice dragon, another popular theory [01:50] suggests that Bran Stark will try to use his time [01:53] traveling abilities to prevent the Children of the Forest [01:55] ever creating the Knight. That seem somewhat unlikely, [01:59] considering the former three eye raven's plain that the [02:01] past is already written, the ink is dry. Ultimately no [02:05] matter who ends up on top when season eight comes [02:07] to a close, it seems all but certain that at least some of [02:10] our favorite characters Characters will be lost along the [02:12] way. This is Game of Thrones after all.
