The Walking Dead: Is Rick Going To Die?

There may be a lot of characters on The Walking Dead‘s roster, but everyone knows the show focuses on one man in particular.

No matter how you slice it, and no matter how many episodes are dedicated to other characters, Rick Grimes is the captain of this team. Andrew Lincoln’s character is the focal point of the series, and many think it would be lost without him.

Lately, the guy has been in some more-than-dangerous situations. The recent episodes have really made fans wonder sometimes, is Rick going to die?

Seriously, the guy has been getting himself into a lot of trouble lately. He almost died by the hand of Negan, more than once, and he then shoved his hand through a spiked zombie. Rick Grimes is the definition of living on the edge.

Yes, Rick is going to die. It’s just one of those situations where it won’t be for a while. He’s going to run with the devil for as long as possible, before finally being defeated down the road.

Robert Kirkman has said, more than once, that Rick is going to die eventually. It just likely won’t be until the series is almost finished.

It certainly won’t be this season, that’s for sure.

Following Sunday’s new episode, executive producer of The Walking Dead and director of Say Yes, Greg Nicotero will join ComicBook.com’s live after show, After the Dead, for an exclusive interview recapping the episode and previewing the final four episodes of Season 7.
