Jon Bernthal to Appear in The Walking Dead Season 9!
Great news for all the Shane fans out there! It seems as Jon Bernthal will show up in one episode of season 9 in The Walking Dead! AMC declined to comment on those news. As we all can remember Shane was killed by Rick (Andrew Lincoln) in season 2, then turned into a walker and was then shot by Carl (Chandler Riggs).
What started those rumors?
The news that Bernthal will show up in season 9, follows reports that he was seen walking around the set after being pictured on Norman Reedus’ Instagram. Apparently he visited Nic & Norman’s restaurant (owned by TWD star Norman Reedus & executive producer Greg Nicotero) in Senoia, Georgia.
As Shane was killed on the show its likely that he will return in some kind of flashback or hallucination as we had it in season 3. There Rick Grimes had a vision at Woodbury seeing Shane.
Who’s returning and who’s leaving?
As we reported a while back, Andrew Lincoln will be leaving The Walking Dead this season. Rumors say that co-star Lauren Cohan will be leaving as well after her ABC show Whiskey Cavalier got picked up for midseason.

It would be great to have a little original reunion before their ways break apart.
Lincoln and Cohan will definitely appear in a handful of episodes in season 9, so let’s not think about them leaving just yet.
