"The Walking Dead" Season 7 could see dynamics change starting with Negan (Jeffery Dean Morgan) and Lucille killing off an Alexandria survivor. While past quips of a "beloved" character says "The Walking Dead" Season 7 premiere is the end of the road for Glenn Rhee (Steven Yeun), Carl Grimes (Chandler Riggs) may not be safe from Negan and Lucille.
The Hollywood Reporter cites "TWD" executive producer Greg Nicotero in how the death in "The Walking Dead" Season 6 finale will translate to the plot. "Knowing the fact that any death changes our characters and changes our people in a very dramatic way, what's exciting about season seven is how a death - any death - changes people and propels us in a different direction," Greg Nicotero said.
ComicBook proposes that the murder Negan and Lucille committed in "The Walking Dead" Season 6 finale could unhinge Daryl Dixon (Norman Reedus). Citing fan photos of "The Walking Dead" Season 7, Comicbook reports that Daryl Dixon could be joining Negan and The Saviors.
"The Walking Dead" fans would recall Norman Reedus saying they should worry about Daryl Dixon. In the past, Daryl Dixon came to cut an invincible figure much like Michonne (Danai Gurira) did. Throw Daryl Dixon or Michonne into any Walker horde and fans easily predict who will win.
The advent of Negan in "The Walking Dead" Season 7, however, shakes up all the comfort zones in "TWD." Daryl Dixon is already in a right state over Dwight (Austin Amelio) for killing Denise and Negan could easily mine this in "The Walking Dead" Season 7.
In "The Walking Dead" comic book canon, Negan and Carl Grimes were seen becoming chummy after the horror of "The Walking Dead" Season 7 premiere. According to ComicBook "The Walking Dead" executive producer Scott Gimple said that the AMC version may retell the story between Negan and Carl Grimes with someone else.
With this plot, the only thing standing between the Negan and Lucille tandem and Carl Grimes, Rick's (Andrew Lincoln) boy is as likely to die as Glenn Rhee in "The Walking Dead" Season 7 premiere. Daryl Dixon, Carl Grimes and Glenn Rhee's fates will be hanging in the balance in different ways when AMC airs "The Walking Dead" Season 7 premiere on October 9.
