Sansa Stark is likely to emerge as a never-seen-before power packed character in "Game of Thrones" Season 6. Sophie Turner, the actress who plays the role, has declared that Sansa will finally stand for herself in the upcoming season.

"This is the season I'm most excited for. Sansa's coming into her own and standing up for herself," Entertainment Weekly quoted the 20-year-old as saying.

Calling "Game of Thrones" Season 6 as Sansa's "best season yet," Turner seemed excited over her expanding fan base that has increased manifold after her character's brutal rape by the show's biggest psychopath, Ramsay Bolton (Iwan Rheon). Since Sansa was seen leaping from Winterfell's castle wall in the season 5 finale, her fans are eager to see her fate in the upcoming season.

Sansa  undoubtedly has a major yet mysterious role to play in the Emmy-winning series. While writer-producer Bryan Cogman also could not stop himself from gushing about Sansa's storyline, the showrunner Dan Weiss has declared that Turner has really delivered well this season.

Several fan theories have also emerged around the character. While Sansa has to try to escape Ramsay's men and figure out how to reclaim her home in the upcoming season, it is also speculated that she has conceived after her wedding night or during the remainder of season 5, implying that she will be seen pregnant during the major part of this season.

Perhaps after escaping from the clutches of Ramsay, Sansa is likey to finally evolve from being a pawn to a queen, much to the excitement of her fans. She is also likely to reunite with her long lost sibling, Arya and Bran Stark, or with reincarcerated Jon Snow along side whom she will fight to take revenge from her estranged husband.

Earlier, the English actress expressed her desire for a grisly end to her character. She admitted during an interview that she does not want to survive on the show.

"If you're on "Game of Thrones" and you don't have a cool death scene, then what's the point?" Wall Street Journal quoted the actress as saying.

"Game of Thrones" Season 6 is returning on April 24. Watch the latest trailer below:
