It's been over a decade since the Walking Dead series💙 – an adaption of Robert Kirkman's popular comic series – premiered on AMC. Since then, several spin-offs and films have either made thei𝔍r debuts or have entered development. 

Andrew Lincoln, who has been there from the start, departed the mainline Walking Dead series during its ninth season. Since then, there have been plans to create three 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Walking Dead movies to explore his character 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Rick's future. In a recent interview, our sister publication 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:SFX Magazine caught up with Lincoln and asked him about 🐽production on the upcoming Walking Dead film🐲s. 

"I’m not filming at the moment," he says. "I’m still very much in lockdown. We’re very excited about how, at the first available oppo🐬rtunity, we’re going to go into production – there’s talk of it being spriಞng. I can’t wait to get those cowboy boots."

It sounds like filming should be ramping up soon, sꦑo Lincoln can put those boots to work, but there is a possibility his character could make an appearance in the upcoming final series before the movie. 

"That’s a very good question," he replies when asked about Rick returning to the main show. "The easy answer is I have no idea. I don’t think it’❀s written yet, but I would never say never to that because everybody that’s stil🅠l doing the TV show are dear friends, and it’s an extraordinary feat that they’re still going and making this beautiful and ground-breaking show that still resonates with the world."

And don't worry, you ☂will get more Lincoln in the future regardless. 

"I have🌱 signed for more than one film," he continues. "I am a producer on it. I will not be directing, because I don’t like watching myself, so that would be a self-defeating exercise. It would just be the most painful... yeah, it just wouldn’t happen! All of those answers will hopefully be r𓄧esolved in the next couple of months but, yes, there’s more than one. We need to get the first one absolutely right and that’s why it’s taken longer than we anticipated – and obviously with the pandemic. I can’t wait. I’m really excited about broadening the scale and scope of the story and finding out where Rick is."
