The blood on the ground in Atlanta has barely dried following the fifth season finale of The Walking Dead, and the show’s creators are already talking up the mayhem that they’re preparing to unleash upon us all in season six.
“Having Rick and Morgan together, finally, again is a huge deal, and it’s definitely going to be a big part of Season 6. Now it’s a very different Rick and a very different Morgan who are going to have a completely different relationship. And it’s the questions of how they’re going to interact, how they’re going to work together — if they’re going to work together — and what comes from those interactions is going to be basically the spine of season six.”
Additionally, and thanks to the presence of Yeun, Kirkman discussed the heavily rumoured death of Glenn, reportedly telling the room, “We don’t kill the popular characters,” with more than a hint of sarcasm; a comment that was met with roars of laughter from the crowd.
“The way that we make the show — the writers and everybody really want to focus on making things poignant and purposeful and meaningful. So if it were for Glenn to go, then it’s probably going to be awesome.”
So from that, we know that Rick and Morgan are going to have to merge their batshit craziness in order to co-exist in some manner, which CLEARLY can only have positive connotations for the other survivors, right? What could possibly go wrong there?
