Die hard Game of Thrones fans will be disappointed to learn that the characters of Rickon, played by Art Parkinson, and Osha, played by Ways to Live Forever, will not be returning in Season 5 of the HBO series.

The characters Rickon and Osha are somewhat ridiculed in the Song of Ice and Fire community. Well before the pair departed on their journey, fans created memes to represent how much of a minor character Rickon was in both the original novels and the TV series.

The show version did keep Rickon around somewhat longer, doubled his age, and gave him some more dialogue than the books. And while he and Osha take off at the end of A Clash of Kings, (which is basically the second season of the HBO show) never to be seen again. The show kept him around until season three, before sending them off - going beyond the wall to seek the three-eyed raven in Brann’s dreams. Also, author George RR Martin has not finished the next book in the series and the show needed to stretch things out for content.

At the Red Carpet Premiere of Dracula Untold, actor Art Parkinson was asked if he would be returning to the show.

Natalia Tena has been known in recent years from her roles in the Harry Potter film adaptations, as well as Robbie Kay's character's nurse in Ways To Live Forever.
