It’s official my dear TWD fans – Andrew Lincoln will definitely leave the AMC hit show after Season 9. He officially confirmed it at this years San Diego Comic Con! We already wrote about the rumors some time ago – click HERE to check out our previous post.
Lincoln said:
This will be my last season playing the part of Rick Grimes. I love this show. It means everything to me. I love the people who make this show.
I promised not to cry. I’ve done enough crying onscreen…This has been the most extraordinary, amazing, and beautiful experience of my career.
He also said, that he would take a break from acting to spend more time with his family back in the UK.
Lincoln has been on the show since the very first episode and had the leading role for nearly a decade.
As we already reported before, Lauren Cohan will only appear in a handful of episodes over the 9th Season regarding her upcoming show Whiskey Cavalier!
A little sitenote from Robert Kirkman at SDCC – Samantha Morton will join the series as Alpha, leader of the Whisperers.
