“The Walking Dead” is Going to Extreme Lengths to Avoid Spoilers For That Finale Death

By JonathanBarkan on June 17, 2016

The topic of “The Walking Dead” and the season six finale is still one of hot debate amongst many people. Theories are still popping up left and right as to who gets the business end of Negan’s bat “Lucille”, even though the showrunners have made it very clear that no one knows who the deceased is going to be, not even the cast and crew.

To really make sure no one can say who got axed (batted?), the filmmakers have apparently shot not one, not two, but 11 death scenes, one for each of the characters that were kneeling in front of Negan.

So, to clarify, that means that Carl (Chandler Riggs), Rick (Andrew Lincoln), Michonne (Danai Gurira), Eugene (Josh McDermitt), Maggie (Lauren Cohan), Sasha (Sonequa Martin-Green), Daryl (Norman Reedus), Arron (Ross Marquand), Rosita (Christian Serratos), Abraham (Michael Cudlitz) and Glenn (Steven Yeun) have all filmed their own death scene at the hands of Negan, according to THR. One of these scenes will then be chosen to open the show’s 7th season, which will be airing this fall.

AMC is really making sure that no one knows what’s coming until the actual premiere date, so my recommendation is to not even worry about it. If you’ve read the comics, you know who dies there and how the story unfolded from that point onwards. But we’ve also seen the show deviate pretty strongly from the comics, so it’s all just a guessing game.
