The Walking Dead will lose Rick Grimes (Topic)

Fans of the series "The Walking Dead", based on popular comics, will soon say goodbye to its main character - Rick Grimes. According to Deadline, actor Andrew Lincoln, who played this character, will leave the show in its ninth season.

How this will happen and at what point is still unknown. Grimes is expected to "hold out" until about Episode 6. Representatives of the AMC channel declined to comment on this.

It also became known that another popular hero, Daryl Dixon, played by Norman Reedus, will remain on the show after the end of the ninth season. Moreover, the cost of his new contract with the creators of the series is estimated at $ 20 million. Most likely, it is Daryl who will become a key figure in the next seasons of The Walking Dead.

The departure of Rick Grimes will be another important difference between the movie adaptation and the original source. In the comics, Rick Grimes remains the leader of the group of survivors.
