Of course, this video glosses over a lot, but it surprisingly hits most of the main beats covered last season.
The Walking Dead Season 6picks up immediately following the events of last spring’s finale when Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) executed Alexandrian Pete (Corey Brill) in front of a shocked town hall meeting, and the returning Morgan (Lennie James). But new threats both inside and outside the community will force Rick, Michonne and the other survivors to reevaluate their roles within the group and take drastic actions to protect their people and their new home. Along with all of these returning characters,Season 6will feature plenty of new faces as well.
This new season will feature a number of new characters, such asCorey Antonio Hawkins' Heath, an Alexandrian supply runner,Merritt Weveras Dr. Denise Cloyd and Ethan Embry as Carter.Xander Berkeleyjoined the cast last month, and it’s been speculated that he could either be playing the infamous comic book villain Negan, or Gregory, the leader of the Hilltop Colony. The show is also seeking actors to play a married couple named Kirk and Hilda, but fans have already speculated that this couple could be Dwight and Sherry.
