"The Walking Dead" is getting ready for Season 6, which is around six months away from now. While fans are very eager to know what's going to happen next, Executive Producer Robert Kirkman isn't making the fans wait too much for any information.
In the National Association of Broadcasters Show, Kirkman, Steven Yeun and Charlie Collier were in attendance to talk about the upcoming season.
In the panel, Kirkman was immediately asked about Morgan and Rick. Finally, the two have been reunited again after almost four seasons. What will their relationship be like now?
It will be a "completely different relationship," Kirkman answered. "And it's the questions of how they're going to interact, how they're going to work together—if they're going to work together—and what comes from those interactions is going to be basically the spine of season six."
Actor Lennie James (Morgan) said at "Talking Dead" that he will be back for one more episode. But after Kirkman's statement, he might be in the season longer, much to the delight of the fans.
What about Glenn's fate? There was so much talk about Glenn being killed off in Season 5 since this was the story in the comics. Now, Glenn is still alive and the question is carried over to Season 6. Will he die in Season 6 then?
"We don't kill the popular characters" Kirkman said.
Yeun said "The way that we make the show—the writers and everybody really want to focus on making things poignant and purposeful and meaningful. So if it were [time] for Glenn to go, then it's probably going to be awesome."
"The Walking Dead" Season 6 is set to premiere on October. However, the spinoff series "Fear The Walking Dead" is going to air this summer. This series is set before the zombie apocalypse event happened. The first season will have six episodes and AMC already renewed it for another season to be shown in 2016.
