Please play attention to us The Walking Dead fans, AMC showrunners. We will riot if you don’t kill off Glenn in The Walking Dead Season 7 premiere. We’ve prepared for this moment. It happens in the comics. This nonsense about you employing body doubles to fool people is not OK.
In a new interview with The Hollywood Reporter , The Walking Dead creator Robert Kirkman had the audacity to admit there were some cast look-a-likes planted on set to throw off people trying to snap set photos. We’ve taken a look back at the set photos shared by The Walking Dead spoiler hounds The Spoiling Dead . We’ve see Daryl Dixon on set with Negan. We are NOT okay if that’s a fake. Apparently, the show has gone to great lengths to mess with fans.
“Not sending screeners out [to press] is a big one,” Kirkman told THR. “There's a lot of extra security measures on distribution and the international dubbing and those things to help prevent the kind of leaks that we've had in the past. There has been a lot of tactics used in filming that have been used on films — monitoring actor movement and trying to do things in secret. We've employed body doubles in places to make people think that people are in places that they're not. It's pretty exciting to try and hide certain things.”
Kirkman continued, “This is a big season, so we're not just protecting things that happen in the first episode; there are things that happen in the second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth episode and beyond. We're trying to maintain that secrecy so when people watch the show, they can have that same experience they have in the comic where you don't know what's going to happen and it comes as an exciting surprise as the story moves forward. There is a lot of secrecy surrounding this season and when people watch the episodes, they'll see why and hopefully appreciate it.”
Don’t touch Daryl. You can kill off Glenn (even though we don’t want you to), Abraham or even Maggie. Just leave Daryl alone. Sunday can’t come soon enough. We don’t know about you guys, but we’re tired of this game of Eeny Meeny Miny Mo. Pick someone and get it over with! We all know the real fun starts after Negan kills one of Rick’s people anyway. Did you see the teaser where Negan drags Rick into a RV and asks for a hatchet? Yeah, Rick’s not doing so great.
Even if they do kill off Daryl we might still watch the show. We’re hooked. The Walking Dead Season 7 premieres Oct. 23 on AMC.
