We spent much of the weekend reminding fans that Scott Gimple plans on running The Walking Dead for the next 20 years. In fact, as a joke (or not) he sadly informed fans of the show’s cancellation….in 2030. While we waste our collective days thinking about exactly how The Walking Dead is going to spin our heads for the next two decades, let’s try and focus on season 7 and the present for the time being. A new clip for the season finale has come out and it appears what we all expect to happen will: War. A war between Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) and the Saviors and the communities under Negan’s thumb has been brewing and the finale looks poised to see this battle play out. According to TV Guide
One of those communities is the Kingdom, run by King Ezekiel (Khary Payton), who after a period of resistance has finally agreed to join the fight after the eye-opening death of one of the Kingdom’s favorite sons. We thought that young man’s death had also spurred Morgan (Lennie James) back into battle mode, but in this sneak peek released by AMC, it seems like Morgan is having second thoughts about joining Ezekiel. Morgan is a loner, so he probably wants to go off and fight on his own. But Ezekiel knows how valuable Morgan is, and he’s giving him a motivational speech to persuade him to ride with the Kingdom.
“Join us on this journey to create an alliance,” Ezekiel says. “Fight with us, and we shall defeat them, so that no one will suffer their capricious malevolence ever again.”
Check out the trailer below. Should be a great Sunday!
