The Walking Dead: Norman Reedus Teases an ‘Explosive’ Finale
Plus: Winter comes to The Walking Dead
[Spoilers Ahead] Last week, The Walking Dead showed us just what happens when you cross Alpha. One of the most shocking moments was when its revealed that she had taken the heads of ten members of the group, including three series regulars. This of course does not sit well with the rest of the group. But according to star Norman Reedus, the season finale that airs this Sunday will be a completely different feel.
“I will say visually the last episode is nothing like you’ve ever seen on The Walking Dead before,” says Reedus. “It’s completely different. It was so fun to shoot. It’s a different look, 1000%, in the end. It’s a huge, visually explosive episode that’s going to be visually stunning.”
This could be because, for the first time, we will see how the groups fare during winter. However, Reedus says it’s not just the snow we should be excited for. “There are some personalities at the very end that get wrapped up in a certain way, like you think a person’s far to the left and they end up far to the right. We ended on a way that’s kind of The Great Escape. It’s not a wrap-it-all-up-in-a-bow episode,” said Reedus. “It’s definitely a moving forward sort of vibe, it’s just huge.”

Moreover, Reedus credits Angela Kang for her creativity and willingness to take the show in new directions. “I love the risks that she’s taken,” says Reedus. “I love what Angela’s doing to the show. She’s very punk rock, Angela Kang. She jumps in. There’s a confidence with our crew and with our cast and with our storytelling that we’ve earned over the years. If you’re going to take risks, now’s the time to take them, and they’re all paying off After nine years, you have to reinvent yourself a little bit. I just want to make the show that we want to make, and it feels like that’s what we’re doing. You can feel it in the crew, you can feel it in the cast. You can feel it in the scripts. It’s the show that we want to make.”
The Walking Dead season finale will air this Sunday, March 31st on AMC. Be sure to follow ScaryNerd for more
