Disney has had a style of death named after them "Disney Death" where people who seem to have died actually haven't . A prime example is in Lady and the Tramp when it appears one of her dog friends has died, then when the movie moves forward a few months, you see he simply broke his leg. I think people are thinking ATW will fall into this category.
On the other hand, we did get Kerchak in Tarzan dying in the movie.
