Multiple Deaths Filmed for THE WALKING DEAD to Keep Negan’s Real Victim a Secret
AMC wasn’t messing around with that major death cliffhanger from the season six finale of The Walking Dead. According to inside sources, there were multiple deaths filmed for the finale to help keep the identity of the of Negan’s real victim a secret.
Apparently 11 cast members filmed death scenes at the end of Negan’s Lucille. They claim that one of the other reasons they did this is because of the complications of people using drones to take photos from the set, which could reveal spoilers. Executive Producer Scott Gimple previously explained:
"With the advent of drones, it can become such a game of cat and mouse that as far as sneaking a peek at the actors walking to set, we want to just keep our actors safe and the people who might be looking safe — like [when they're] in the street.”
With 11 death scenes filmed, I guess if they wanted to, they could change their mind and kill off whoever the hell they want. We’ll just have to wait until season seven to see who actually met their demise thanks to a brutal beating by Negan.
