One of the highlights of yesterday’s San Diego Comic-Con lineup was The Walking Dead panel in Hall H where the showrunners and cast gave fans a sneak peek at season 5.
Talking Dead host Chris Hardwick kicked off the panel discussion by asking producers about the groups fate at Terminus, where we last saw them. TWD creator Robert Kirkman confirmed what we already knew based on the show’s current filming locations, they won’t be at Terminus for long. “Terminus seems like a major departure but I can say very quickly we’re going to start getting back on track of dealing with some more comic book events,” he said. “This is going to be a season that is pretty close to the comics.”
Along with panel regulars like Andrew Lincoln, Steven Yeun, Norman Reedus, Melissa McBride, Lauren Cohan, Emily Kinney, and Danai Gurira, Chandler Riggs made a surprise appearance, with a big can of chocolate pudding, just like in season four. This was Chandler’s first appearance at Comic-Con which prompted the crowd to go crazy.
Check out video of the full panel below, as well as the season 5 trailer.
