Norman Reedus on the Future of ‘The Walking Dead’ – Robert Kirkman Spoils Season 4 (SPOILERS) #thewalkingdead

Along with new showrunner Scott M. Gimple, Robert Kirkman is at the center of The Walking Dead Season 4′s development and knows the plan for the upcoming season

Just days after the season three finale of “The Walking Dead” aired on AMC, shocking fans and inspiring vigorous commentary on blogs and message boards, actor Norman Reedus arrived at the premiere of Danny Boyle’s film “Trance” last night, looking like an urban version of his character, Daryl Dixon — with that distinctive long hair and an all-black ensemble. Reedus lives in New York’s Chinatown when he’s not filming “The Walking Dead” in the woods outside Atlanta, and stood on the penthouse floor of the “Trance” after-party at a private triplex on Greenwich St. Speakeasy ran into Reedus and his date, singer Debbie Harry, by one of the heat lamps, and enjoyed the view of New Jersey together. “It’s very clubby up here,” he said, before talking with us about “The Walking Dead” season finale, what we can expect in season four,(interview here, possible spoilage but not really but just in case, but anyways… ) normansoursarus  source

Do you know what’s going to happen next?
NR: Our writers are very generous in that they bring you into the writers’ room and then they’re very clever at telling you absolutely nothing for about two hours.

“You’re in it you’re like, “yeah, yeah,” and you walk out and you’re like, “I have no fucking idea what we’re going to do.”…

Were you surprised that the Governor lives?

NR: No, because I don’t think he’s reached his full Governor-ism yet, you know? I mean, the comic book villain is like the most hated comic-book villain, above the Joker. The biggest one ever. So I think he’s going to get meaner.
In many ways it’s helpful for the show that there’s a villain that’s constant.

NR: It’s interesting because people that aren’t villains, may turn into villains, you know what I mean? Carl just shot a kid in the face. I think season four is going to be our best season, I really do. Our new showrunner – Glen [Mazzara] was amazing, and Frank [Darabont] was always amazing, but Scott [Gimple] is such a good writer. He’s got the whole thing plotted out already. I’m really excited to get going. We’ll start season four in May.’

 At last night’s Cinema Society screening of  the film Trance, we asked The Walking Dead’s Norman Reedus how he’d survive a zombie outbreak in Manhattan.

“I would go to the Trump Hotel, lock myself in the penthouse, and watch South Park,” he told us.

“Wait it out. Oh, and jerk off.”

The whole time? It might take a while.

“Not the way I do it! It’ll be over in fifteen seconds.” Note to the rest of The Walking Dead cast: That’s how you answer a zombie-apocalypse question for the one-millionth time.

Along with new showrunner Scott M. Gimple, Robert Kirkman is at the center of The Walking Dead Season 4′s development and knows the plan for the upcoming season. There are definitely a lot of questions about where the show is headed after last Sunday’s Season 3 finale, and Kirkman discussed what we can look forward to in the fourth season during a recent interview.

As mentioned recently, David Morrissey is back as a series regular in the fourth season.

Here’s what Robert Kirkman told IGN about The Governor: (Note: to TWD comic book readers this is unsurprising as the Grimes gang spent a long time at the prison.)
“Yeah, he’s still very much in the mix… When we see him again and where we see him again, that’s the big question. It’s not going to be like it was in Season 3–…Rick and the Governor on a collision course with a conflict between them. He’ll be used in very different ways next season.”
We’ll see a different Carl and Rick in Season 4:
“Rick has had a success. The people at the prison have survived this conflict with the Governor, he brought people from Woodbury into the prison, and he’s kind of had this big win… But he’s had this tremendous loss in that Carl has lost this piece of his humanity. This has been Rick’s main mission throughout the show, to protect his family. We’ve seen two very big failures on that front this season.
Moving into next season, we’re going to see a very different Rick… this is a big change in the character of Carl, but it’s something that’s going to be weighing heavily on Rick next season.”
Although it seemed very likely, Robert Kirkman confirmed that the new season will take place at the prison once again:
“I’ll say that there are a lot of familiar elements that are remaining. Michonne is still around, Rick and his group are still in the prison, the Governor’s still out there… so there are a lot of things that are carrying over from Season 3 to Season 4, but…there are going to be some radical changes to those elements that are going to bring in a lot of new storytelling…”
The Walking Dead Season 4 Casting Update:

The AMC series is currently looking to cast a character named Roy Stark.

The casting call for the character describes Stark as ‘n his early 30s to mid-40s and a former army medic. “A bit of a loner, he’s deeply haunted by his past (both before and after the crisis),” the casting call reads. “He has a charming, self-deprecating-but-confident public face, despite how troubled he is.” And Stark won’t just be a character that the camera’s pan to every once in a while. The character is set to come on immediately as a series regular.

A couple other “Walking Dead” folks have also been moved up to series regulars for season 4. Tyrese (Chad Coleman), Sasha (Sonequa Martin-Green) , Beth (Emily Kinney) and the Governor (David Morissey) have all been promoted to season 4 series regulars.

“The Walking Dead” will return to AMC in October 2013.

Who Dies in the Season 3 Finale of The Walking Dead!

It’s almost as hard to believe that we are facing the end of another season of The Walking Dead as was the conclusion of last week’s episode wherein Merle (Michael Rooker) has a change of heart about delivering Michonne (Danai Gurira) to the Governor (David Morrissey) to ‘play’ with. Merle instead went on a suicide mission with the intent of killing the Governor thereby protecting his little brother, Daryl (Norman Reedus). As you might recall, Merle did take out eight of the Governor’s men using both weapons and zombie helpers, whom he rather inventively recruited. Ultimately, the Governor got the best of Merle, killing him and leaving him to turn (see below).

With the final episode of Season 3 The Walking Dead almost upon us, questions remain about who will next die. We’ve already been warned that there will be a high body count, not unusual for the show, but the questions that seem most important to viewers is WHO WILL DIE?

For starters, it seems very likely that the Governor’s surviving Woodbury-ians will certainly die in large numbers. Many of them have been seen but barely heard, rendering them little more than redshirts–but will Tyreese (Chad Coleman) and his sister Sasha (Sonequa Martin-Green) make it? Hard to say, but I’m going to guess Tyreese lives, Sasha dies.

Regarding Rick’s group, sad to say, it seems that among the most painful and plausible losses would be Hershel (Scott Wilson). Now that Rick is regaining his senses, losing the voice of reason seems like something The Walking Dead showrunners would do to maximize our pain. Since Hershel, during his prayers with both daughters (to paraphrase) declared he would do anything for them, my guess is that in an attempt to save one of them, he is killed. If it is Beth (Emily Kinney), both he and she may succumb. If Maggie (Lauren Cohan), then Maggie at least, will survive. In addition to the prayer foreshadowing was his blessing of Glenn’s (Steven Yeun) desire to marry Maggie and Glenn’s statement to Hershel that he ‘finally understood’ the meaning of the pocket-watch that Hershel gave him back on the farm.

Finally, will the Guv survive? I’m going with ‘yes’ because he has not created enough havoc yet. He may very well scurry off with a surviving Martinez, perhaps to take time to put together another harder, meaner version of Woodbury and may come after Rick’s group at some point in season 4.

Note that these are all guesses based on watching the show and integrating little bits from the comics; none of what I’ve written are in any way spoilers. Not this week, anyway.

‘The Walking Dead’ – Episode 3.14 – Prey – Detailed Synopsis SPOILER ALERT #thewalkingdead

Once again, this week we have the entirety of a new The Walking Dead episode  revealed to us.

So, fair warning, if you wish to watch this Sunday’s episode of  TWD episode 3.14 and not know what the outcomes will be, stop reading now. Every other spoiler synopsis from this source has been 99% correct. (The grammar leaves a bit to be desired but the leaked synopsis is sourced from a Spanish country (in which The Walking Dead is as insanely popular as it is here).

‘The Walking Dead’ – Episode 3.14 – Prey – Detailed Synopsis SPOILERS

The episode begins with Tyreese and Sasha practicing their shots (see sneak peek video).

Andrea goes in search of Milton to find out what the Governor discussed with Rick. Milton tells her in explicit detail, about the trap involving Michonne, the Governor’s plan of killing anyone who comes to deliver her (like the more dangerous — Rick, Merle, Daryl, Glenn), and what he plans on doing to Michonne.

Andrea deliberates whether or not she should just kill the Governor but Milton urges her to go and warn Rick’s group instead. Andrea, however, doesn’t want to flee; she wants to follow her plan of murdering the Governor that night.

The Governor goes to some stores in Woodbury that night and breaks windows and burns walkers. He tells the townspeople that it was Rick’s group who did it. Martinez begins to disapprove of the Governor’s methods but also begins to suspect Andrea.

Back at the prison, Rick is keeping watch when he sees something odd amongst the walkers. For a moment he begins to hallucinate and sees Carl as a walker.

Carl suddenly appears behind Rick and asks him what he’s looking it. Rick, surprised, tells him it isn’t anything.

Rick begins to seriously consider trading in Michonne for the safety of his people but he also considers how Michonne has helped them herself. He considers her a part of the group.

Glenn and Maggie announce that they would like to get married and wish for Hershel to marry them.

Back at Woodbury, the Governor speaks to Andrea and questions what side she’s on. Andrea lies and says she’s on his side while smiling at him affectionately. The Governor pretends not to believe her and turns around. (?) Milton sees whats happening from afar and calls Andrea over. He gets in an alley to wait for her. He tells her that he’s willing to try his luck outside and accompany her to the prison. Andrea doesn’t want to go to the prison because it will ruin her plans.

Milton insists on going to the prison to warn them. The Governor then approaches them and becomes suspicious. He beats Milton, leaving Andrea to help clean his wounds. Milton finally agrees to her plan on killing the Governor.

In the prison, there’s a scene where Daryl and Merle are talking about how their separation in Atlanta was convenient because they don’t think they would have survived so long otherwise. Merle insists that they should leave the prison immediately but Daryl doesn’t want to. He knows that their lives would hanging on by a thread on the road and that the group is tired of running.

While they’re eating Beth tells them that if T-Dog, Dale, Lori, Jimmy, Patricia, and Otis wouldn’t have died and if they wouldn’t have turned away Tyreese’s group, they would be a much stronger team.

In Woodbury, Andrea is investigating their weapons when the Governor catches her. He beats her and intends to sexually assault her when Martinez comes in. He (Martinez?) asks (the Governor? Andrea?) if she tried to kill him.

The morning comes, with it a new day, and the Governor sends some men to search for Milton since he is nowhere to be found.

Tyreese and Sasha are keeping watch on their post when suddenly hear gunshots and see a horde coming their way.

Allen, Ben, and two other men appear from the forest. They are firing their guns and trying to get to Woodbury.

Martinez comes after hearing the gunshots and exclaims for them to go a different direction, as they are leading the horde to the town, but none of the men listen to him.

The men get to where Tyreese and Sasha are. They try to help them but the horde is huge. The walkers grab one of the men and they destroy him. Ben trips and hurts his ankle. Allen runs out of ammo so he drops the rifle and asks the remaining man to help him with Ben.

The man abandons them. Tyreese signals them to climb on one side and Sasha kills some walkers so they can get to the wall. Tyreese pulls Ben while the horde gets closer. Allen isn’t able to make it over and is grabbed by walkers. They bite his arms and legs. Tyreese, unable to do anything else, shoots Allen in the head.

Ben can’t believe what has just happened. Once he finds out that Allen, Ben, and the other two men were sent to kill Milton, Tyreese confides that he believes Andrea is right about the Governor.

Hm. Not really shocking. One of the redshirts (Alan) is dead. Interesting that Andrea wouldn’t listen to Milton, who really knows what the Governor is capable of. So Andrea went hunting for weapons (for Rick’s group? now? DUMB) got herself beaten and nearly raped by the man who just days ago she was ‘in like’ with (sounds awful, but she’s continuing on the path of making very stupid choices) and the last time we see her, Martinez has walked in on the mayhem. Milton is MIA, though supposedly is making his way to the prison, if the lackeys the Guv sent did not kill him.

All-in-all sounds like a satisfying The Walking Dead episode, setting us up for the penultimate episode and then what is sure to be a BIG season-ender on March 31!
