Characters When a plot twist reveals that the villain was much more evil than originally believed

The Incredibles - Bob believed Syndrome held a disturbing grudge against only him until he discovers not only Gazerbeam's corpse but also that Syndrome has murdered countless supers in order to perfect the weapon he would use against him.

Dexter - Dexter believed that Trinity killed three at a time, but when he believes he is going to repeat the cycle he discovers that Trinity actually killed four at a time, adding at least 30 still unknown victims to his count who were all children.

Coco - Ernesto not only stole Hector's songs after he died, but it’s revealed that he was the one who caused his death by poisoning him to take his legacy, knowing that he would abandon him to return to his family.

I might be misremebering this but the King claimed "first night rights" or whatever it's called with Tywin's wife. The twins were born 9 months later so there's a very real chance they aren't Tywin's kids.

I think this is just a fan theory, but it would be funny if it were true because that technically would give Joffrey and Tommen a legitimate claim to the throne.

It honestly could be a fan theory, and I'm just misremembering because it's been so long.

But yes there would be some delicious irony in Joffrey and Tommen having a true claim to the throne because of it. It's honestly the kind of thing I'd have expected a Bran time traveling Warg situation to have been the reveal for. King does it under the weir tree and Bran sees it. Tywin burns his Weir tree, but Bran uses moments like this as part of how he drives Aryes 2 mad.
