There are several The Walking Dead films in the making around Rick Grimes. That news became known yesterday, shortly after Andrew Lincoln was last seen as the character in the television series.
The departure of Lincoln was announced and fans knew exactly in which episode the series said goodbye to Rick, the sheriff who led the survivors of a zombie apocalypse in the last eight seasons through an America that was forgiven by ‘undead’. Dutch fans see his last episode tomorrow.
In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter producer, Scott Gimple indicates that it is probably three films. He does not let go when these stories take place, but he does say that he is looking at possibilities to do something about characters and actors that have already disappeared from the series. ,, That would not only give us the chance to work with these fantastic people, but also to answer questions about their characters. “
Emotional
Lincoln announced in July that he was going to leave the series. His last day on the set of The Walking Dead was very emotional, the actor recently said. But it did not become a teardrop. ,, I did not cry. I have left all my tears on the screen. I think Rick Grimes has cried enough for both of us in those nine seasons. “
The Brit says goodbye to the zombie show because he wants to be in his own country more often and wants to spend more time with his family. For the films he would only have to stay in the US for two months, whereas he was there for nine months for recordings of the series.
