Harrington, 28, was observed wearing his long hair in a bun, adding fuel to the fire he will be shooting scenes for coming Season, having kept the signature flowing locks his character is known for on the series.
Tom Wlaschiha, who plays many-faced Lorathi assassin, Jaqen H'ghar was also on the same flight Harrington arrived in.
During the Season 5 finale, Harrington's Snow was presumed dead after the men of the Night's Watch mutinied on the new Lord Commander, taking turns stabbing him until he fell on the snow and succumbed to his wounds.
The finale, "Mother's Mercy," was viewed by a total of 8.1 million U.S. viewers, and while the episode was critically acclaimed, Snow's death scene was observed to be ambiguous. Show creator D.B. Weiss has confirmed Harrington's character has been permanently killed off; however, a number of theories have emerged surrounding Snow's resurrection for Season 6.
Despite the conclusion fans jumped to upon spotting Harrington at Belfast, the actor may have been present to film Jon Snow's funeral, or a possible flashback scene, explaining his long hair.
