THE WALKING DEAD does not begin it’s third season until October, but AMC has already revealed the second biggest new character after Michonne wielding her samurai sword a few weeks ago.
Check out David Morrissey as The Governor.
While the look differs almost completely from what the comic book version looked like, I am hoping the change is merely cosmetic. David Morrissey is a fine actor but I was expecting someone more gritty and, well, rednecky for the role. In fact when the rumors abounded in season one that Michael Rooker’s Merle Dixon may become The Governor, I was completely on board.
In fact, AMC has also revealed the first image of Merle’s return in season 3, sans his right hand. I hope that Merle’s return will spark some conflict between Rick’s group, especially the reformed Daryl Dixon.
We may get a look at The Governor in action during AMC’s two day marathon in July along with the black and white pilot episode.
