Breaking News: A's identity will finally be revealed, for real.

"Pretty Little Liars" showrunner Marlene King finally answered the long-running question from fans who want to know when the real "A" will be uncovered. 

During one of her Twitter question and answer sessions, a fan posted: "@imarleneking at what point in the season will A be revealed? #Askmar." 

This was answered by the series showrunner with a tweet, saying: "Officially Im not allowed to say the exact episode yet. But it will be in season 6 @cfrias13." 

It means that after this current season, fans will finally know who is behind all the troubles that have hounded Arya (Lucy Hale), Hanna (Ashley Benson), Emily (Shay Mitchell), and Spencer (Troian Bellisario). But it may still take a long while before A's identity is unveiled. Currently, season 5 is still running, and tons of drama are still being tackled each episode. 

When season 5 returns, fans will find Ali (Sasha Pieterse) still locked up in jail for allegedly killing Brittany and Mona, but that does not mean that the resident mean girl of Rosewood will leave the Liars alone. Hanna, for one, will face a bigger threat in the upcoming episodes of the season. According to Wetpaint, Hanna is bent on preventing Ali from pinning Mona's death on her in episode 17. 

Aside from their issues with Ali, the girls have to confront several problems of their own. Emily has to deal with her recent breakup with Paige (Lindsey Shaw) after the latter left for California. She will also reportedly deal with a co-worker who seems to be constantly beefing at the newly-renovated The Brew. On the other hand, more "Ezria" drama will surround Aria and Ezra (Ian Harding), as the former English teacher acquires The Brew as his new business. And Spencer and Toby (Keegan Allen) will have relationship troubles of their own, as Toby tries to hide a vital piece of information from her that he discovered while working for the Rosewood Police Department. 

"Pretty Little Liars" season 5 episode 17 will air on Jan. 13.
