Walking Dead Star Says Cliffhanger Is “Worth The Wait”
Many fans were disappointed with the Season 06 ending of Walking Dead, as a character was presumably killed via Negan and his bat Lucille, but don’t see who. This has caused many fans to cry out in outrage.
However, Walking Dead star Norman Reedus says it’s going to be worth. He tells IGN:
“I mean, the truth of it is that it’s very precious to us, what we’re doing, and it’s our thing we’re doing out in the woods. It would almost be doing it a disservice to us to go around blabbing about it, because we put so much work into it, and it’s so personal to us that we almost don’t want to talk about it too much, because it’s private and personal, and you’ll see it. It’s well worth the wait, that cliffhanger, I will say that. This season that we’re doing now is going to answer every question, and it’s well worth the wait — well worth the wait.”
He also talked about those who are hating on the ending on the internet:
“Well, I mean, everyone’s got an Instagram and a Facebook and a Twitter, and everybody wants to know everything right now. ‘We deserve to know everything right now!’ You know, cliffhangers have been happening ever since television started. And I like that there’s so much enthusiasm for this show. Everybody’s so invested in it, and we are too, but you make art sometimes to start conversation, and having people talk about what you did is kind of a compliment no matter what they’re saying. So I get it. I mean, I like watching television and being pissed off and wanting to throw something through the TV too, but that’s part of the excitement! I like that kind of thing. So I’ll say it again: It’s well worth the wait. You’ll get it, and you may wish that you… [Laughs] You know what I mean. Sometimes you want things to happen, you don’t want things to happen, and they happen, and you’re like, ‘DAMN!’ So, you know, just be ready.”
Walking Dead returns this fall.
