The Walking Dead community has been rocked by the new Andrew Lincoln — who plays the central character Rick Grimes — will depart the show during its ninth season.
Lauren Cohan, who plays Maggie on the show, is also reportedly leaving the series over the course of season nine.
While the fanbase has argued over whether the move marks a positive or negative for the long-running series, Daryl actor Norman Reedus has marked the news with an Instagram post.
With Lincoln leaving the show, reports indicate that Reedus will become the series’ new leading actor, AMC having allegedly offered him $20 million for season nine.
