To help sweeten the wait until the extended episode airs on AMC, we have new photos from the finale featuring both sides of the impending war... as well as a walker who has seen better days.
The Walking Dead Season 7 finale airs on Sunday, April 2nd at 9:00pm ET on AMC. Stay tuned to Daily Dead for more updates on The Walking Dead, check out the new photos below, and, in case you missed them, watch preview videos for the season 7 finale.
The Walking Dead Episode 716 – "The First Day of the Rest of Your Life": "The stakes continue to grow higher as paths cross; the group enacts an intricate plan."
Season 7b synopsis: The first half of Season 7 saw Rick (Andrew Lincoln) and the group broken by Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan), forced to fall under his will and brutally convinced to live under his rules. The second half of the season will focus on preparing for war and gathering the supplies and numbers to take Negan down once and for all.
Rick’s group will find out yet again that the world isn’t what they thought it was. It’s much bigger than anything they’ve seen so far. While they have a singular purpose - to defeat Negan - it won’t come easy. More importantly, victory will require more than Alexandria. They need the numbers of the Kingdom and the Hilltop, but, similar to how Rick felt, Ezekiel (Khary Payton) and Gregory (Xander Berkeley) do not want bloodshed. To convince them otherwise will take more than speeches. The lengths Rick and the group will have to go to in order to find weapons, food and new fighters is nothing short of remarkable.
We’ll meet new survivors in incredible places. We’ll see Rick and the group tested in ways we’ve never seen before. We'll see treachery from people we trust. Rick is confident as he will see his group and many others band together with the common goal of taking down Negan. But no amount of planning will prepare the group for all-out war with Negan and his army.
“The Walking Dead” is executive produced by showrunner Scott M. Gimple, Robert Kirkman, Gale Anne Hurd, Greg Nicotero, Dave Alpert and Tom Luse."
