Analysis: Who is most likely to end up on the Iron Throne in 'Game of Thrones'?
Cersei Lannister currently sits on the Iron Throne, but we know that won’t last. Who’s up next? By Travis M. Andrews Travis M. Andrews Pop culture reporter covering music, movies, TV, comedy and celebrity culture Email Bio Follow April 8 at 7:00 AM As Cersei Lannister famously said, “When you play the game of thrones, you win or you die.”
He also began as an underdog , who overcame his past to run the Night’s Watch and eventually the North. Now it’s slowly coming out that he was the child of secretly married couple Rhaegar Targaryen and Lyanna Stark , who are both dead. There’s an incredibly strong argument that this makes the Iron Throne his birthright.Jon Snow becoming the king would be the logical conclusion of the hero’s journey, but “Game of Thrones” is all about subverting narrative norms.
Bran has no particular claim to the throne, and he has two living siblings who might take umbrage with the young man ruling Westeros instead of his extremely qualified sisters. But the fan theory is far more complicated than him coming in and taking over.
