It’s always difficult when your favorite character gets killed on a television show. You’ve spent weeks getting to know them, growing to care about them, and watching them go on adventures, and so when the Grim Reaper finally comes for them, it’s a bit like losing a family member. Nobody knows that pain nearly as well as those who watch Game of Thrones, which seems to kill off a beloved character every other week. Luckily, we have some good news for fans of Pedro Pascal‘s Oberyn Martell: you will get to see him again.

Technically, you’ll only be seeing Pascal, who has been cast in the upcoming Netflix series Narcos, according to Deadline. The drama will follow the legendary drug kingpin Pablo Escobar (Wagner Moura), and the efforts of the US government to take him down. Pascal will play Javier Pena, a DEA agent who is sent on a mission to capture and kill Escobar – as long as he doesn’t get too distracted plotting his revenge. However, the Red Viper isn’t the only person killed this season who will be popping up somewhere new, so in order to help you through the grieving process, we’ve rounded up all of the major characters who died this year on Game of Thrones, and where you can catch them next.
