The Walking Dead Season 7: Ranking The Probability Of 17 Major Character Deaths

6. Morgan

TWD Season 7 Deaths

Since his return in Season 5 (and fully cemented in S6), Morgan has developed into one of the most interesting characters on the show (he was always a good supporting player, but is now a much bigger part of things).

A man trying to retain his humanity in this world gone to hell, by refusing to kill, he presents a fascinating counterpoint to the character of Rick Grimes, although he is separated from the main group again at the moment.

Seaon 7B should see him, along with the rest of the Kingdom, brought back into the fold though, and eventually Morgan is going to have to fight. He is, by my reckoning anyway, one of the biggest characters at risk: his death would be a shock, and a blow to fans, but also make narrative sense (him having to return to the fight, perhaps saving Carol, and then dying in battle is a potentially strong arc). Then again, he's developed enough that you can keep him around for longer, and do plenty more with him.

Chance Of Dying: 7/10
