Does 'The Walking Dead' Season 8 Key Art Reveal A Major Spoiler?
On Tuesday, AMC released exciting new All Out War key art for The Walking Dead Season 8. Hidden in [...]
Eugene Porter
On the right side of the poster is Eugene Porter. Eugene is the only character featured who has not shown a clear allegiance to Rick Grimes since Negan came along.
No one else who is siding or showing signs of siding with Negan and the Saviors is featured on the poster. Not Jadis, not Gregory, not even Jeffrey Dean Morgan's Negan himself.
While many fans expect Dwight to betray Negan based on the character's comic book counterpart, the fact that Eugene is featured alongside all of the show's "good guys" might be a telling sign of where he'll stand when the war marches to Negan's doorstep. The character is, after all, only interested in his own safety. When the Saviors appear to be threatened, he may very well try to flip back to Team Family. Whether or not they'll have him, though, is unknown.
Before he potentially escapes Negan's Saviors, however, Eugene will help tell the villain's backstory according to Negan actor Jeffrey Dean Morgan. "The little slivers of backstory that we're hopefully will find out, it's important to have someone like Josh, or Eugene, on Negan's side," Morgan said. "Eugene wants to know things. So, it's been a good conduit."
