The Walking Dead Returns With Chaos, Brutality and 'the Biggest
Hardships Ever'

Welcome to the Battle of Alexandria.
That’s what The Walking Dead star Andrew Lincoln has dubbed this
night in late August on the Senoia, Georgia, set of AMC’s zombie
blockbuster. It’s 1:30 in the morning, and Lincoln—along with
the majority of the series’ main players and about 180 “walker”
extras—is pacing in the middle of a bright red blood-soaked
street with a battle-ax in hand. Feral screams and grunts pierce
the night’s warm, heavy air as Lincoln psychs himself up for
hours of hand-to-hand combat between the residents of the
Alexandria Safe-Zone and the walker horde that has breached the
walls and infested the residential community.
“As if you didn’t have enough to do tonight, do you want two
more kills?” stunt coordinator Monty L. Simons asks Lincoln, who
eagerly obliges. Soon, even more fake blood is being applied
toMichonne’s (Danai Gurira) samurai sword, and the army of
warriors pushes deeper into the zombie-infested streets, hacking
and slicing at every walker that gets in its way like a
carefully choreographed ballet resulting in a symphony of guts
and gore.

“This is the biggest episode we’ve ever done in terms of the
amount that happens,” Lincoln says during a break in the action.
“This is the greatest jeopardy they’ve all faced, and it’s going
to take a lot to save this community.”

The second half of The Walking Dead’s sixth season marks the
beginning of a new chapter for the series. The idyllic Virginia
community that was a brief beacon of safety and hope has been
compromised by hundreds of flesh-eaters and is now without its
leader, Deanna Monroe (Tovah Feldshuh), who was bitten and fell
victim to the herd during November’s midseason finale. Now it’s
up to constable Rick Grimes (Lincoln) to lead the entire
population of Alexandria on the counterattack.
“This is a huge turning point for Rick and the group, because
there’s a lot of chaos and it’s very brutal,” says executive
producer and creator Robert Kirkman. “This is not the end of
Alexandria, but we’ll see a different Rick Grimes as he faces
possibly the biggest hardships ever.”
There will also be an expansion of the show’s universe. “We are
going to see a larger world and discover all sorts of
complications and complexities to the world that the group was
not aware of and not even thinking about,” says showrunner Scott
M. Gimple, who also promises a more straightforward and linear
viewing experience—as opposed to telling the story through
various timelines, as he did in the first half of the season.
Viewers got their first glimpse of that world beyond Alexandria
last fall through the eyes of trackerDaryl Dixon (Norman
Reedus). As Daryl was escorting the zombie herd away from
Alexandria on his motorcycle, he was ambushed and captured by a
trio of assailants who were fleeing from a community of their
own. After establishing a sense of trust, Daryl helped them
escape from their mysterious pursuers. But Daryl’s faith in the
others proved to be misplaced—he was double-crossed and stripped
of his beloved crossbow and bike. “At the end of filming that
day, I was really pissed!” Reedus admits. “That’s my motorcycle.
Nobody rides my motorcycle! For Daryl, he feels like he just let
Rick down, and he’s also pretty pissed at this point.”
While Daryl’s storyline was fairly limited in the first eight
episodes of Season 6, Gimple promises the audience will get to
see much more of the fan favorite this winter. “We put Norman
through his paces,” Gimple says. “He’s very scary in this back
half, but there are a couple of moments where he made me laugh
out loud. There is a whole lot of Daryl and a wide variety of
Daryl.” Upon his return to Alexandria, he will also reunite with
Rick for a “little adventure” of their own, says Reedus. “We
have a little Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid–type thing
going on,” Reedus says with a laugh. “It’s safe to say that we
get to do the tango, much to everyone’s excitement,” Lincoln
adds.

Jeffrey Dean Morgan as Negan
Daryl’s path home to Alexandria hit a hurdle during a coda in
November’s midseason finale when Daryl, Abraham (Michael
Cudlitz) and Sasha (Sonequa Martin-Green) were stopped by a
group of armed men who demanded all of their possessions. After
being asked who they worked for, one of the men uttered the name
most avid readers of the comic book source material have been
waiting for years to hear: Negan.
Indeed, the biggest bad in the Walking Dead universe is heading
to the screen this season, but Gimple has a warning for
overzealous fans to temper their expectations. “His name has
been invoked and his group is certainly of growing importance,
but it’s not like we are going to see him starring in an episode
right off the bat,” Gimple says. In fact, Negan’s first
on-screenappearance—which Kirkman promises will be
“bone-chilling”—won’t be until the April 3 season finale.
Portrayed by The Good Wife’s Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Negan will
eclipse past antagonists like the Governor (David Morrissey) or
Terminus-dwelling cannibal Gareth (Andrew J. West) because of
his charismatic nature and intense brutality. In the comics,
Negan is the leader of a group based outside Washington, D.C.,
known as the Saviors, who plunder supplies and resources from
other communities in return for protection against walkers. He
also wields a baseball bat wrapped in barbed wire, lovingly
named Lucille. “He is the darkest incarnation of a bully,”
Gimple says. “He’s a very magnetic character; he isn’t just a
sociopath. He is the star of his own movie.”

Xander Berkeley as Gregory
Another familiar face from the comics being introduced is
Gregory (Nikita’s Xander Berkeley), the cowardly leader of a
neighboring colony known as Hilltop. “We’re changing it in some
ways so readers will experience a slightly different Gregory
than we have in the comic,” Kirkman says.
If there’s one member of the group who has a fighting chance
against this new foe, a case could be made for Carol Peletier
(Melissa McBride). Over the past six seasons, Carol has
transformed from a meek and abused housewife to a cold and
calculated killer, doing whatever it takes—including murdering a
young girl—in order to ensure her group’s survival. “Her
evolution has been a surprise every step of the way,” McBride
admits. “She’s adapting well, and I’m most proud of her coming
to the forefront to utilize her capabilities and no longer shush
her own self.”
When Carol first arrived in Alexandria, she attempted to blend
in as a casserole-loving, cookie-baking homemaker while keeping
a close eye on every resident. She reverted to her ass-kicking
self following the brutal invasion by the Wolves, and she went
toe-to-toe with Morgan (Lennie James) after discovering he was
harboring a Wolf prisoner (Benedict Samuel) within the
community’s walls. “This is not the last time they will have a
confrontation over their opposing points of view about
survival,” McBride teases. “We’re not predisposed to taking
another life, so she’ll be struggling.”

Melissa McBride as Carol and Josh McDermitt as Eugene
The struggle was also a little too real for fans in the first
half of Season 6 when it appeared one ofThe Walking Dead’s most
beloved characters, Glenn (Steven Yeun), died at the hands of
ravenous zombies. After four agonizing weeks without any further
information, it was finally revealed that Glenn had been
shielded by the corpse of Alexandrian Nicholas (Michael Traynor)
before the former pizza delivery boy was able to shimmy under a
Dumpster to wait out the herd.

Steven Yeun as Glenn
The secrecy surrounding Glenn’s fate was so intense that other
cast members were enlisted to help reinforce the charade.
“Steven went into hiding and I had to sneak him around,” Reedus
says with a laugh. “He was in the back of my car lying on the
floor with a coat over him. Those were some interesting couple
of weeks, for sure.”
Now that viewers know Glenn is definitely alive, they will not
have to wait very long for his reunion with his pregnant wife,
Maggie (Lauren Cohan). “Everything that they’ve lived through is
bringing a new optimism to their way of life that is going to be
very valuable moving forward,” Kirkman says. “It just
strengthens both characters and their relationship.”
Even though Glenn’s arc had a happy ending, death is always
lurking on this show, and not everyone will make it out of the
first episode alive. “It is such a great group of people that it
does not get any easier,” McBride says. “When the news comes, we
just celebrate that person and meander down the moments that
were fun, funny and wonderful. We wish them well going forward,
knowing that they’ll be well.”
Back on the set, the clock has just struck 5am as the production
team races against the inevitable sunrise to prepare for the
climax of this action sequence. It’s been an exhausting 12-hour
shoot for the entire cast and crew, but when a costume assistant
attempts to mend a hole in Reedus’s pants, the actor drops them
entirely and reveals his tie-dyed boxers, bringing a much-needed
moment of levity to the early morning. The battle of Alexandria
may be ending, but the war for humanity has only just begun.

From TSDF Ninja
I know the majority have pretty much accepted the rumor at this
point anyways...But I feel really confident saying, IT'S
HAPPENING, YA'LL! All of it!
Except the wolf driving through the wall part. We haven't heard
anything about that yet, but we figured that was off. Oh, and
Carl might not have jumped in front of Rick. Ron may have been
aiming at him the whole time. Still unclear. Little bits are
starting to trickle out. We really hope we'll learn more later
this week! Hallelujah!

When SFX visits the The Walking Dead’s set in Senoia, Georgia,
we immediately notice the group is once more separated.
Maggie (Lauren Cohan) and Carol (Melissa McBride) are in the
woods and on the run,
running into new enemies who’ve thrown jackets over their heads
and kidnapped them.

Oh no :(

From Daydream Machine, posted on thespoildingdeadfans, who got
the last 2 episode summaries correct:
I've already seen the next episode but I won't write a detailed
summary and instead just drop some nuggets. It's not a very
eventful episode anyway, so I guess it's fine.
- There's a time jump, Carl is fine, it's quiet and peaceful in
Alexandria, people are cleaning up and rebuilding.
- The main plot revolves around Rick and Daryl who are on a
supply run. They meet Jesus who tricks them and steals their
truck full of supplies. They catch up with him but the truck
ends up sinking into a lake unintentionally. It's all quite fun,
especially the banter between Daryl and Jesus. They take Jesus
with them to Alexandria as a captive but he shows up in Rick's
bedroom at the end of the episode, telling him they need to
talk.
- There's a subplot with Michonne and Spencer as well as Carl
and Enid roaming through the woods. Not much happens during the
Carl and Enid part. They find a walker Carl doesn't want to
kill, but it isn't revealed who it is. Later, Michonne and
Spencer find the same walker - lured into their direction by
Carl - and it turns out to be a zombified Deanna. Spencer kills
her and finds closure.
- By the end of the episode, Rick and Michonne have sex, just
like that. They hold hands, make out and then have sex and when
Jesus arrives in Rick's bedroom they're naked in bed together.
- Denise mentions that Tara and Heath are about to go on a 2
week supply run which makes me think they will be captured by
Negan and Tara will be toast soon (taking Holly's place from the
comics).
That's it, basically. It's a fun little episode, but as I said,
not very eventful, just some table setting
