One that many found literally jaw dropping.

However, the majority of the trailer is focused on Negan, the primary antagonist of season 6. Starting off with a montage of scenes dedicated to the more hopeful past moments of each character, the trailer soon ventures into their latest darkest challenge-facing against the murderous Negan. This line’s placement here could mean one of two things: either Glenn’s going to really regret letting Maggie burn that Polaroid, because there will never be another opportunity to photograph his wife, or Glenn won’t need any photos of her or anyone else, because he’s dead.
After Jeffrey Dean Morgan hit the stage with his character’s murderous baseball bat Lucille and greeted everyone with, “Are we pissing our trousers yet, motherf-kers?” the new series regular talked about how his brief appearance in the Season 6 finale has led to him being stopped on the street more than ever before in his career. Yes, a tiger. How awesome is that?
Ezekiel will be portrayed by Khary Payton (Teen Titans, General Hospital)and if the trailer is any distinction, we’ll be getting some Shiva action as well. Ezekiel is the leader of The Kingdom, another survivor community that will help Alexandria and the Hilltop Colony beat Negan and the Saviors. As previously reported, the AMC folks have shown up at the huge 2016 Comic-Con event in San Diego, CA this weekend, and they delivered new trailer/spoiler clips for some of their shows.
“Sometimes, to change the picture that you usually see on screen can ruffle people, because it’s change”, added Gurira. “Eventually, he and Michonne end up in a relationship which will be an interesting story point on television, seeing as Michonne ended up being Rick’s gal”.
“I hope and believe that it will help break that barrier and allow more of those portrayals to be expressed”, she said. Hence Shiva, the tiger featured in the new trailer.
What comes next is an eerie video montage of all of your favorite character’s lives as Negan walks back and forth saying, “eeny, meeny, miny, moe…” to decide which person will die. Producer Gale Ann Hurd described this season like this. Unfortunately, spoilers were very few and far between, but we did get a few teasers that will have us chomping at the bit even more until October. Our characters are going to be meeting both friend and foe. “Whether they’re benevolent, or not so benevolent”.
