The Walking Dead season 10 finale director says “jaws are gonna drop”

Last Updated on July 30, 2021

The season 10 finale of THE WALKING DEAD was supposed to air on AMC in April, but due to current events, had to be pushed back to a later date. But the director of the episode, Greg Nicotero, had this to say about the finale in an interview with FANDOM:

It's one of my favorite episodes of the season…What's great about our show, and what Angela [Kang, showrunner] has done so well, is really kept the momentum of the story moving forward. Where we last left everyone was that Beta and the horde was surrounding the tower, and the finale picks up right where we left off.

There's a lot of character storylines that are [addressed] — you get little bits of information here, here, here, and you want to end that chapter and start the next chapter in the finale…We address lots of stuff with Daryl, lots of stuff with Negan, lots of stuff with Beta, lots of stuff with Carol. I think it's already been revealed that Maggie's return is in the finale, and it tees us up so well for Season 11 that it's a little agonizing for me to not be able to talk about it. Because the last two minutes of the finale, people's jaws are gonna drop.

Meanwhile, THE WALKING DEAD season 10 finale will air on AMC later this year.

And here's the official synopsis:

The episode…picks up where "The Tower" left off: with Judith Grimes (Cailey Fleming), Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan), Father Gabriel (Seth Gilliam) and other survivors trapped inside an abandoned hospital tower swarmed by the legion of zombies steered by Whisperer Beta (Ryan Hurst). To escape a certain doom, Daryl (Norman Reedus), Carol (Melissa McBride), Kelly (Angel Theory) and others must infiltrate the walker horde fearing it's a mission not everyone will survive.
