The Walking Dead: Dead City is now in the second half of its first season, consisting of six episodes. The series has proven to be one of the strongest additions to The Walking Dead universe, delving deeper into the complicated relationship between Maggie and Negan while exploring the post-apocalyptic setting of Manhattan. With its intriguing villain and the return of beloved characters, The Walking Dead: Dead City has successfully captivated viewers, drawing them back into the world of the undead and those who fight to survive.
It comes as no surprise that Lauren Cohan and Jeffrey Dean Morgan continue to deliver outstanding performances as Maggie and Negan, respectively. Their portrayals build upon the years of dedication they invested in the original series. As a special treat, Screen Rant presents an exclusive clip from the upcoming episode of The Walking Dead: Dead City. Titled "Are Maggie and Negan Becoming Friends?", the clip showcases a simple conversation that carries the weight of Negan's unforgivable actions and Maggie's long-standing anger. Take a look below:
Can Maggie and Negan Ever Really Be Friends?
The Walking Dead and its spin-off, The Walking Dead: Dead City, have delved into Negan's complex past, shedding light on his marriage and his attempts to build a new family. However, Maggie's anger towards Negan remains unwavering, as shown in The Walking Dead: Dead City. Though they may have come to a somewhat uneasy understanding, the fact that Negan killed Maggie's husband makes it seem impossible for them to fully trust each other.
Furthermore, the success of The Walking Dead: Dead City can also be attributed to the dynamic between Maggie and Negan, the hero and antihero. Without a deeply satisfying and likely lengthy character arc, future seasons of the show should continue to exploit the tension between these two characters. The show thrives on this inherent conflict and greatly benefits from it, making a genuine friendship between them highly unlikely, at least until the series finale.
The Walking Dead: Dead City episode 4, “Everybody Wins A Prize”, premieres Sunday, July 9th at 9pm ET on AMC.
