Andrew Lincoln Reflects on Glenn’s Death in The Walking Dead Season 7

Published on

Impact and Intensity of a Pivotal Scene


Summary

– Andrew Lincoln admits Glenn’s death might have been excessive.

– Filming the scene was one of the most intense experiences for the cast.

– The death established Negan as a ruthless villain but had mixed effects on the series.

Andrew Lincoln, who played Rick Grimes on The Walking Dead, recently shared his thoughts on the controversial death of Glenn Rhee (Steven Yeun) in the Season 7 premiere. Glenn’s brutal death at the hands of Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) remains one of the series’ most divisive moments, eliciting strong reactions from fans.

In an interview with Empire, Lincoln acknowledged that the scene might have gone too far. “I do still think Glenn’s death might have been when we overegged the omelet and maybe it was lingering too much,” he reflected. He also described the intense experience of filming the sequence, which took place over a night shoot filled with emotional performances.

Despite the criticism, Glenn’s death was pivotal in establishing Negan as a formidable and ruthless antagonist. It also significantly impacted Maggie’s (Lauren Cohan) storyline, creating a complex dynamic with Negan that continues to influence the franchise, including their spinoff series, The Walking Dead: Dead City.

However, some fans and critics argue that the scene was excessively violent and served more for shock value than narrative depth. This has led to ongoing debates about its place in the series and its effects on the storyline.
