The Walking Dead Season 8: 10 Most Revealing Things The Cast Have Said
1. “No-one Is Safe"
What Was Said?
"No-one is safe. Hopefully there have been points where you go, 'Is this it? Is this where Rick dies?' And he doesn’t. One day, the moment will come where you go, 'Oh my god, it is!’ It could happen anytime between now and 50 years from now."
Who Said It?
Robert Kirkman (creator) - New York Comic Con
What Does This Mean?
It might taken a second read of Kirkman’s quote to realise that the creator of the graphic novels guaranteed that Rick WILL die before the end of the series.
The main protagonist was considered to be one of a few untouchable characters, along with son Carl, television creation Daryl and Kirkman’s favourite Carol, who could never be killed off. But this revelation just goes to show that in The Walking Dead, truly, “no-one is safe”.
Showrunners and the cast will stretch the truth to hook an audience in for a new season, but the fact that this came from Kirkman, who would want to remain honest with his loyal fanbase, suggests that it is a genuine eventually and not just than promotional hype.
Could Rick’s death come as early as season eight?
