Think about it:

- First of all: the promo doesn't say someone will actually die they only say «someone won't survive» which in this show could mean a lot more than just «dying» considering all the characters that got killed and survived. Also in  the promo they showed us Hook's funeral to make us a think it would be the funeral of the character who would die... And the promo's are usually very tricky

- In the interview (link:http://www.ew.com/article/2016/05/06/once-upon-time-hot-seat-season-5-spoilers ) Adam and Edward never admited someone would really die and they basically suggested otherwise... (See the screenshots from the interview) Why would they say this if the promo suggests that someone will die and all the fandom is expecting someone  (Robin)   to die?

- I know that there's been a leak of photos that show us Robin apparently dead Regina's office and Regina crying next to him... But what if the leak was intended? If this was such a secret why making promo pics about this (even if they were only the  press access photos it was an unecessary risk)... So in the pics we see Robin 'dead'. But last episode (5x20) Rumple took Robin's heart and we never saw if he gave him his heart back... In season 2 when snow tricked Regina into killing her mom it only worked when Cora had her heart in her chest... So if Hades uses the Olympian Crystal to kill Robin it may have the same rules has the candles (just a theory tho)... But i t's still interesting how Rumple took Robin's heart during last episode when he could have taken another characters' instead.

<span style="color:rgb(38,38,38);font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:10pt;line-height:15.75pt;">- But even if Robin actually dies in tomorrow's episode he can still be back in 5x22 and 5x23... If Hook's getting back to Storybrook in the season finale it means that he found a way of getting out of the underworld or someone got him out (probably Emma)... Therefore if Hook can get out why wouldn't  Robin do the same? Or maybe Emma and Regina will work together to get them both back...

It's Robin, and he will stay dead. What Adam and Eddy are saying in the interview is that we may see Robin Hood in a flashback at some point, just like we do with many other dead characters.
