Who’s Next To Go On ‘The Walking Dead’?

With the lackluster departure of Carl, the main focus of AMC’s top-rated show The Walking Dead, fans are now worried about if their favorites are even safe anymore! All that Chandler Riggs was doing was going to college and the writers lamely killed him off slamming the door in Riggs’ face preventing him from returning to the show. Well, now it seems two more favorites are going next. It’s been said before that contract negotiations are not going well with Lauren Cohan (Maggie) that’s leaving her future in the series in limbo. The biggest shocker of who may be leaving next is Danai Gurira who plays the sword-wielding Michonne. Forbs has reported or have made a convincing argument, that Gurira may end up leaving The Walking Dead soon. The reason why she’ll end up leaving will inevitably be because she’ll want to move on to other work as the offers for spots in movies will be rolling in now after

‘Walking Dead’ Actor Hints The Show May Be Coming To An End

On the season finale of ‘The Walking Dead’ fans (some) were crushed when in the final moments Carl (Chandler Riggs) revealed that he had been bitten by a walker. While it wasn’t told in the finale, Carl was actually bitten in the previous episode. Some fans aren’t taking the news very well and are still holding out hope that somehow Carl will survive. Showrunner Scott Gimple stated that Carl will die “like every other character bitten on the show”, but still, some are holding out hope that it is a trick. Chandler Riggs himself has made it clear he has been fired from the show, so has Chandler’s father who posted several comments on the subject. To further prove it’s the end for Carl today Chandler shared an image that has his fans in shock. He’s cut off his signature ‘Walking Dead’ long hair. While some will just have to come to terms with Carl’s death, and others celebrate it,

The Midseason Finale Of ‘The Walking Dead’ Was Filled With Death And Destruction

WARNING SPOILERS! Last night the midseason finale of ‘The Walking Dead’ left many fans in shock when a major revelation was revealed in the final moments. After only a few moments into the episode, we learned that Negan and many of his men escaped after Daryl, Michonne, and Tara sent a truck crashing into the saviors’ compound in the previous episode. When Negan and the Saviors arrived at the gates of Alexandria Rick was nowhere to be found, and the group was in shock. Carl stepped up as a leader, telling the group that it is his “his show”. While Carl gave a passionate speech that seemed to get under the skin of Negan several trucks attempted to escape, but they left Carl and many of the main group to escape on foot. As Carl attempted to find safety a grenade hit a nearby car exploding, leaving Carl temporarily unconscious. This where I couldn’t help but wonder why they would

The Walking Dead’s Chandler Riggs Joins ‘Inherit The Viper’ And Gets A Hair Cut

‘Walking Dead’ actor Chandler Riggs has signed to star in Anthony Jerjen’s directorial debut film Inherit the Viper, Deadline reports.

A business that is hard to quit – at least not alive.” After Riggs posted a tweet on November 30th that left ‘Walking Dead’ fans concerned. In the photo, Riggs was sporting a haircut very different than his signature look on the hit series. He went from long locks to a mullet. The caption said, “I’m doing this movie and they had

The Walking Dead’s Chandler Riggs Finds Second Career…In Music

It appears The Walking Dead’s golden boy, Chandler Riggs is branching out. While earning his acting cred as Carl Grimes, son of Sheriff Rick Grimes, it seems Riggs has now acted on his interest in the music industry. Riggs has been DJing at events nationwide including the annual Walker Stalker Cruise. Riggs has teamed up with Lolaby to release his first song, titled “Hold On” which he has spent over a year creating. “Hold On” is now available on Spotify and several other sites. This was an amazing co-write between myself and the ever so talented Chandler Riggs.” Lolaby said. Before you jump to conclusions, you should know that this doesn’t necessarily mean his character Carl is on the chopping block anytime soon. Most of the cast of the hit series work on other projects when not filming ‘TWD’. I will say this, the fact that he’s not DJing under the name Carl Poppa is a bit disappointing. Check out

Michael Rooker Wants The Walking Dead To End With A Lone Survivor

I know this is a sensitive subject for Walking Dead fans, but at some point, rather it be in three seasons or thirty, the series will end. There are many ways it could wrap, but recently at Walker Stalker Con Michael Rooker, who played Daryl’s one armed brother Merle, told the crowd how he think it should end. Rooker believes that Rick’s son Carl, you know, the one with one eye and can’t seem to follow orders, should be the last man standing when the end comes. A railroad track…going on forever, into the setting sun. From behind camera, a single individual walks down the middle of the track…into the setting son. You realize that individual is Carl…all grown up, a man of his own. No one else is with him – just him. And as he does his voiceover, you realize that all the seasons that you’ve seen him reliving his past. So everyone on the show is dead.

Is The Walking Dead About To Kill Off Another Main Character?

Don’t worry there are no real spoilers here. One thing that the incredibly popular series, ‘The Walking Dead’, is not scared to do is killing off main characters. In fact, I sometimes wonder if they enjoy it. It has been made clear to viewers that no one is safe. Fans of Chandler Riggs, who plays Rick’s son Carl, have been in a panic. Not only has Riggs been accepted to Auburn University, a cryptic Facebook post from his father, William, has made fans wonder if Carl’s time on the zombie series coming to an end. The post has since been deleted, but don’t worry we are going to tell you exactly what it said. 7 year contract completed! Grateful to AMC, Cast & Crew, TWD fan base and especially Chandler for always being 100% dedicated. Whether it was getting up at 4AM, working in the freezing cold past 2AM, leaving his friends and carefree kiddom behind, scrambling to make up

Movie Review: Mercy (2014) Starring Chandler Riggs

The producers that brought us “The Purge” and “Paranormal Activity”, have brought us “Mercy”. This supernatural film revolves around George, a young boy with the ability to see what most can’t, spirits. When George’s beloved Grandmother falls ill from a stroke he, his brother and his mom move to the Grandmother’s house in the country to take care of her. The stroke is the least of his family’s problems. When you make a deal with a demon bad things tend to happen. Grandma is not who she once was. Shirley Knight The interaction between George’s character and the character of his Grandmother played by Shirley Knight (Paul Blart: Mall Cop) made the movie kind of sweet but creepy at the same time. The characters have a very strange and twisted family dynamic. The 150 year old house they are living in is the same one that their grandfather committed suicide in, by taking an ax to his own head.
