I’m both happy and a little sad to find out The Walking Dead has indeed found its leader of The Saviors — whose look Robert Kirkman based on Henry Rollins (why not just cast Henry?). The actor they chose was not, as we’d been slightly misled to hope and believe — Garret Dillahunt, but he’s still a damned good choice.

Ladies and undead, meet your Negan:

***Mild spoilers ahead***

THR reports Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Good Wife actor, Jeffrey Dean Morgan will first be seen as a guest star in the April sixth season finale, directed by Greg Nicotero, when The Saviors make contact with the Alexandrians. Morgan will be promoted to series regular in season 7. Damn, that’s going to be a hell of a cliffhanger.

Let’s keep our fingers crossed that Dillahunt is still on his way. After multiple tweets, and being followed by Scott Gimple, Dustin speculated he may end up playing one of Negan’s lieutenants, Dwight.
