Jason Momoa's Khal Drogo had a lasting impression on fans similar to Sean Bean's Ned Stark in the first season of “Game of Thrones.” But with the series's penchant for bringing dead characters back to life, fans are wondering if the Dothraki King will be making a comeback in “Game of Thrones” season 8.
Recently, a rumor about a potential Drogo “Game of Thrones” season 8 return has been spreading, citing the fact that Jason Momoa was spotted near the upcoming season's production set in Belfast sometime in May. Momoa himself kept teasing fans with his own videos showing off how close he was to the “Game of Thrones” season 8 showrunners, David Benioff and Dan Weiss.
While fans may be raving about the thought that Khal Drogo may be making a comeback in “Game of Thrones” season 8, the reason for Jason Momoa's Belfast visit may be more mundane than expected. In a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Sean Bean spilled the proverbial beans on a potential reunion episode being shot for “Game of Thrones” season 8.
According to the “Sharpe” actor, the “Game of Thrones” season 8 reunion special was hosted by Conan O'Brien in Belfast. While exact details of the supposed reunion episode have yet to be released, it seems that Bean and Momoa's roles in “Game of Thrones” season 8 will no longer be narratively related as the reunion episode may be more of a behind-the-scenes take on the experience of the show's cast ensemble.
Still, while the more rational explanation for why Jason Momoa was hanging around a “Game of Thrones” season 8 set has already been shared by Sean Bean, some fans may still find such an explanation insufficient. While a potential Khal Drogo cameo may happen in “Game of Thrones” season 8, fans should probably expect to see Momoa's character return simply as part of a hallucination, a dream, or a flashback rather than a flesh-and-blood resurrection.
Fans looking forward to finding out for themselves whether Jason Momoa will return to reprise his role in “Game of Thrones” season 8 will have to sit tight until HBO releases an exact premiere date for the series. Thankfully, fans can be assured that the show will return sometime in the first half of 2019.
