"Game of Thrones" is without a doubt one of the best television shows ever, and most fans will agree to it. Apparently, it is also famous for significant characters getting killed. However, for actor John Bradley, his character Samwell Tarly is unlikely to face death.

According to Metro, Bradley feels confident that his role in "Game of Thrones" will flourish until the end. He reasons out that if Sam is "still around at this stage," one can expect that there is a point for "keeping him around." If there is truth to this, then it is safe to say that this guy will defy the odds and survive.

In this show, the life span of a character — regardless of importance — has always been on the edge. One will never know if a man will die or have the same fate as Jon Snow's (played by Kit Harington). Samwell Tarly is obviously no exception to this. But, of course, what Bradley said is also believable.

In fact, as reported by Highsnobiety, there is a popular fan theory revolving around the aforementioned "Game of Thrones" character. It is speculated that Sam is most likely the narrator of the entire series and that at the end of the show, he is the old Tarly (perhaps a Maester in the Citadel) sharing the story of the show to the children.

Interestingly, Bradley backs up this compelling theory in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter. He shares that judging by the way the story of Westeros and the battle for the Iron Throne go, "it would be a book in that library." Somehow, this is quite interesting, especially when such claim is backed by one of the actors of the TV show.

Unfortunately for the fans of "Game of Thrones," they will have to wait for the next season to be televised. It will premiere on July 16, and until that day arrives, all the claims will remain as such.
