The Walking Dead: Norman Reedus says 'the planet is going to explode' when season 7 finally comes

'It blows my mind. It just continually reaches a new plateau every single time'

As the first half of Fear The Walking Dead wraps up, attention has turned to season seven of The Walking Dead, fans still wondering “Who did Negan kill?”

Daryl Dixon himself, Norman Reedus, has already been asked the question “about a zillion times”; something he’s getting a little annoyed at because he can’t answer in any meaningful way without giving away spoilers. And he hates spoilers.

“I don’t like spoilers, to be honest,” he told Entertainment Weekly Radio. “I like the enthusiasm behind everyone wanting to know, but it’s a good feeling to have that enthusiasm, so let’s hold onto it.”

However, one thing he can talk openly about is his excitement for season seven, something he couldn’t emphasise enough.

“Trust me,” he told the Radio show. “I think probably the planet is going to explode. That’s my feeling. It’s so good. Every time we go on a promotional tour talking about what’s going to come, we all say ‘Oh my God, it’s amazing. I can’t wait for you to see it.’ But it continually surprises me how this show grows and is put together and the execution of it – no pun intended.

“It blows my mind. It just continually reaches a new plateau every single time, and this is the highest plateau we’ve ever been. So just wait. It’s worth the wait, trust me.”

To say that’s got us just a little excited would be a massive understatement. Meanwhile, just last week, Universal Studios Hollywood announced The Walking Dead was getting its own theme park attraction.
