The Walking Dead: What is coming for Season Three?



Season 2, Episode 13:  Action at Last.
How The Walking Dead saved itself.

What we know is coming for The Walking Dead, Season Three this Fall:

Michonne in the comic/graphic novel 
1. Michonne: Fans of the comics know that the hooded woman, sword-wielding woman who showed up to save Andrea (Laurie Holden) is Michonne, who will be played next season by "Treme" actress Danai Gurira. In the comics, the detoothed, armless zombies she drags along behind her are her former boyfriend and his best friend. She keeps them around to repel other zombies, now that they're in no position to harm her.
"Her appearance is a really important moment, because up until this point in the show, everyone has been focusing on how to survive and what do we do and how strange this world is," Kirkman said on "Talking Dead."
"And this is really the first character that has figured it out and knows exactly what to do and knows how to survive, and it's a really good indication of the kinds of stories we're gonna be telling in season three."
The Prison: A blessing or a curse?
2. The Prison: That dark final shot in the season two finale was of a prison near the survivors' makeshift camp. In the comics, it becomes a fortress that protects the survivors from the outside world -- even as it traps them in another one.
David Morrissey cast as The Governor

3. The Governor: AMC has already announced British actor David Morrissey will play The Governor, the villain whose arrival "Dead" fans have long anticipated. And since The Governor, in the comics, plays a major role in events at the prison, expect his arrival to be imminent.
Do you think Merle might have some unresolved issues with Rick?
4. The return of Merle: Kirkman confirmed to TheWrap earlier this year that we'll see Merle, played by actor Michael Rooker, again. And Rooker himself confirmed his season three return during the WonderCon panel in Anaheim over the weekend.

  1. That's great news, I love me some Merle. "Ah, what's wrong there Darlena?" LOL Unfortunately, they'll probably kill him off next year too. I expect TDog to be killed early and be kept around as one of the Governor's fighting zombies. If that happens remember, you saw it here first.
