Soon we will continue with the 2nd half of the 7th season «The Walking Dead» and we are facing the war against Negan. But while Rick Grimes is still looking for comrades-in-arms, there is the first defeat: betrayal in their own ranks.
Rick's group endured a lot of suffering together, but got through it together and is now a well-rehearsed team. Now they face the next big test: the uprising against Negan! But now, of all times, the cohesion seems to be faltering. TWD star Lennie James confirmed in an interview with "NME" that viewers have to be prepared for a betrayal in the new episodes of the 7th season "Walking Dead". The approaching fight against the seemingly overpowering Saviors seems to result in some survivors changing sides. But apparently there is betrayal on both sides.
"There are some people who are going to the dark side that will totally surprise you," says Lennie James in the interview, "and there will also be some people who are going to go to the light side - and it's all just a matter of Perspective." Rick Grimes has to take losses, but Negan is also losing followers. The first hints of who could switch sides were already in the first eight episodes of "The Walking Dead" season 7. Dwight and Sherry in particular are high on the list of possible Negan traitors. After all, the two have turned their backs on the leader of the Saviors before in the past. But who could be the traitor in Team Rick? The deaths of Abraham and Glenn brought everyone even closer together. They all want only one thing: revenge. It's hard to imagine a rift happening now, with one of the survivors joining Negan of all people.
As "The Spoiling Dead Fans" reports, Eugene will probably feel a little too comfortable in captivity. Negan took him back to the Sanctuary as a prisoner, but Eugene will fare better there than Daryl. After all, he has one important use for Negan's people: Eugene knows how to make ammunition. Eugene, who has been ridiculed up until now, finally gets the recognition from the Saviors that he didn't get in Alexandria last time. In particular, the argument with Rosita may have caused Eugene to reconsider his stance. As "The Spoiling Dead Fans" reports, Rosita and Sasha should even try to save Eugene – but he doesn't want to be saved and refuses to come back to Alexandria. Not the only betrayal Rick has to face, according to spoilers and rumors: the new group of survivors they meet at a junkyard will also reportedly switch sides. At the beginning they are supposed to pledge their support to Rick, but then together with Negan and the Saviors they launch an attack on Alexandria.
According to the American fan site "The Spoiling Dead Fans", Morgan is also said to undergo a change and suddenly fall back into "crazy mode" in the 14th episode. Debt should be a death that hits Morgan hard. Allegedly Richard is to blame for the fact that Ben - whom Morgan was a mentor to last - is killed. Ben's death seems to open old wounds in Morgan and remind him of his son's death. Morgan goes berserk and then kills Richard. The days when every life is precious are obviously over. If you believe the rumors from "The Spoiling Dead Fans", we can also look forward to celebrating a reunion with the old Carol soon. With the Carol that once rescued Rick's group from Terminus. In the end, Carol showed herself from a completely different side. She was tired of constantly fighting and killing. In this context, she left Alexandria to be alone. A plan that didn't quite work. Carol now lives in her own house near the Kingdom. Alone, but not as alone as she would like. King Ezekiel seems to have taken a liking to her and Morgan keeps paying her unannounced visits. But how does "The Walking Dead" manage to reawaken the old will to fight and live in her? "The Spoiling Dead Fans" reports that Carol should finally find out about the deaths of Abraham and Glenn in the new episodes. Morgan is supposed to bring her the tragic message that should lead to Carol being haunted by a new change. She should then leave her house and seek talks with King Ezekiel to request support for Alexandria in the fight against Negan. Allegedly, she appears in the finale of season 7 "The Walking Dead" with soldiers from the kingdom in Alexandria to lead them - side by side - to the war against Negan...
