'The Walking Dead': Jeffrey Dean Morgan As Negan [Spoiler]

Warning: MAJOR SPOILER ALERT!

After months of speculation, Jeffrey Dean Morgan is finally joining the cast of the Walking Dead as AMC has finally chosen an actor to play the most evil villain, ever!

He might be tied to nice guy roles from other hit TV series such as SupernaturalThe Good Wife and Grey's Anatomy, but this guy bested Matt Dillon, Timothy Olyphant, Garret Dillahunt, among others who auditioned for the part of the evil savage leader of The Saviors, Negan. Contrary to his group's name, Negan is nothing like you expect him to be. He's actually even worse than the Governor! Morgan's character, Negan - will be revealed in The Walking Dead Season 6 finale.


Negan is described to have psychotic tendencies and often engaged in emotional outbursts. He is a violent leader of a group called The Saviors that is feared and respected as a king. His most notable characteristics is his love for f-bombs that he incorporates into his speech and conversations.

Games Radar writes that, "Negan first appears in issue 100 of the comic when Rick stumbles across him during a supply run. The vicious group he leads roam communities and extort supplies in order to protect them, including Alexandria and the as-yet-unseen Hilltop community with whom Rick and co team up to fight back."

As fans of The Walking Dead comics, the character of Glenn may not really have died, as previously shown in Season 6 Episode 3; being devoured by walkers - to meet this evil leader and be beat up to death with a baseball bat wrapped with barbed wire. Ouch, that's gonna be one bloody death - for reals!

As if that's not crazy enough!

In the most recent episode of The Walking Dead, Glenn's wife, Maggie, went out to search for Glenn with her fellow Alexandrians. While with Aaron, she revealed that she was pregnant with Glenn's baby!

Uh-oh. Things will be exciting as Negan's character will be on the lookout to Alexandrians.
