Norman Reedus Talks THE WALKING DEAD Season 7 Premiere!

Bringing you the best in Horror Movie News, and all things Horror.

The Season 6 Finale of AMC's THE WALKING DEAD was really well done and packed with excitement, but it ultimately left a sour taste in the collective mouth of fans as we finally saw the arrival of one of the most vicious characters to date in Negan, played by Jeffrey Dean Morgan. The overwhelming fan disappointment comes from the cliffhanger where Negan brutally bashes an unknown cast member over the head with his barbed wire baseball bat named Lucille. Fans will have to wait until the fall to find out who will took that brutal beating.

One TWD cast member that hears the outcry of disappointment from fans is Norman Reedus who plays Daryl Dixon. Speaking with TVLine, Reedus assures fans that things will be fine saying:

“I will definitely 100-percent say that it’s well worth the wait." Adding, "It’s large. It’s mind-blowing.”

The actor went on to talk about how there is so much more to the upcoming season than just the big reveal:

“It’s a completely brand-new world right now. It’s very exciting. It’s emotional. And then it’s overwhelming and emotional!”

Speaking about the reality on set for he and his co-stars and keeping spoilers from leaking:

“We’re a very tight-knit group down there [on location in Georgia], and we take it very personally, because we’re in it and living it. Every time you see us crying on camera, those are real tears. It’s a whole day of living that sh*t. And when personal things happen to you, you don’t wander around telling everybody your personal stuff. So for us, it doesn’t feel like just a spoiler, it feels like a moment that really happened. And if there’s a death involved, it’s kinda weird to talk about it. It’s like going to our friend’s funeral or going possibly to our own funeral! It’s not like, ‘Hey, how are you? Want a selfie? Let me tell you about the funeral I was just at… ’”

Norman Reedus' new six-part reality series titled RIDE WITH NORMAN will air on AMC beginning Sunday June 12th.

THE WALKING DEAD Season 7 will premiere on AMC this fall.
