The Walking Dead: 2022 Brings the Return of Andrew Lincoln as Rick Grimes
It’s a shame that the pandemic has delayed the Rick Grimes film series, but at least they’re still making them. Soon production will begin and we can’t wait to see Rick Grimes again! Andrew Lincoln is looking forward to returning as well!
Robert Kirkman has confirmed it in the past, and we have no reason to believe anything has changed!
Gimple told Comicbook.com’s Brandon Davis, during an interview, that, “I got to tell you, he’s itching to get back, too. We all are.”
Those words are certainly encouraging for fans of The Walking Dead. Especially for fans who have been missing Rick Grimes.
Gimple said, “So much of what we’ve been doing is honing and tweaking and experimenting, and we’re just in the lab with it,” Gimple told ComicBook.com. “And we’ve been playing around a lot. We were doing that before and now it’s forced upon us. We don’t know when we would be doing it if everything was finished right now, we just don’t know, but we’re still in the lab. We’re still goofing around with it. We’re still playing around with it.”
Robert Kirkman, creator of The Walking Dead, revealed that the epidemic has slowed production but may aid the film’s overall quality. The delay gave producers time to perfect the movie.
“We have to honor people who have invested the time in their lives in the show,” Gimple said said. “But we can’t do that at the expense of inviting everybody. I think those things can work together… Rick has a history and the history will be present within him and it’ll be a big part of who he is. But it’s likely going to be a very different Rick that we see as well.”
However, more recently, Andrew Lincoln has expressed a desire to return. We’re looking forward to seeing him again, as it is rumored that production will begin this spring for the first of several Rick Grimes movies.
The Walking Dead returns to AMC this February for the eleventh and final season.
