The Walking Dead Season 8 is quickly approaching, and a few spoilers about the new season have been revealed. Most recently, details about the opening scene of the premiere have been announced.
According to Comic Book, the Walking Dead Season 8 premiere will open with a close up shot of the show’s main character, Rick Grimes. From that point, the show will be focused mostly on Rick. The show’s producer, Greg Nicotero reveals that it will be Rick (Andrew Lincoln) who “dominates the plot, not Negan.”
The Walking Dead drew a lot of criticism in Season 7 for the all of the focus that the series put on Negan, the show’s mega villain who took the lives of Abraham Ford and Glenn Rhee in the Season 7 premiere. However, the Walking Dead Season 8 trailer seems to suggest that the show will go back to its roots for the upcoming batch of episodes and focus mainly on Rick experience as the leader of his group of survivors.
