The Walking Dead Episode 10×04 is titled, “Silence the Whisperers.” The official synopsis for Silence the Whisperers reads, “Still paranoid Alexandrians get riled up over the Whisperers and take their fear out on Negan. Back at Hilltop, the group deals with an unexpected safety issue.” The episode is directed by former Abraham Ford actor Michael Cudlitz on a script from Geraldine Inoa.
In Sunday night’s episode, Khary Payton’s King Ezekiel will be feeling the effects of losing his people, his woman, and more. Following the episode, a full interview with Payton will be posted on ComicBook.com.
“It’s literally a mind numbing thing to try to put yourself into is someone who’s feeling that kind of useless and that kind of, like he’s a drain on any and everything around him,” Payton told ComicBook.com. “Cudlitz and I talked about it a lot and I did a lot of research on post traumatic stress disorder, just in the last few years that we’ve seen with Ezekiel, he’s gone from being kind of this positive light to a guy who’s literally lost everything. He’s living the life of Job right now, asking God, ‘What the hell did he do wrong, you know, to lose literally everything?’”
Fans can look forward to an interesting exchange between Payton’s Ezekiel and Danai Gurira’s Michonne, as well as more story from Jeffrey Dean Morgan’s Negan and Cassady McClincy’s Lydia. ComicBook.com’s Cameron Bonomolo praised the episode ahead of its airing. “One of the show’s best ever episodes with its pulse-pounding walker action and compelling character work,” Bonomolo said. “Shining moments for Negan, Daryl, Ezekiel, Lydia, Michonne & Judith.”
