Andrew Lincoln’s departure has grabbed the headlines, but he’s not the only veteran star on the way out. Lauren Cohen’s departure has been less clear, from reports of a pay dispute to talk she will return for Season 10.

It’s a slightly muddled picture, but what we know is that Cohan will only appear in six episodes. In that time, the show needs to build upon her revenge-plan against Negan and potential conflict with Rick, her being one of the main leaders among the communities, and FINALLY becoming a mother.

That's a lot to get through, so much so it’s hard to see them being able to fit in a satisfying death, and it’s more likely they’ll leave things open-ended for them to work out just how Cohan will return.

NCTJ-qualified journalist. Most definitely not a racing driver. Drink too much tea; eat too much peanut butter; watch too much TV. Sadly only the latter paying off so far. A mix of wise-old man in a young man's body with a child-like wonder about him and a great otherworldly sensibility.
