It seems like the whole cast and crew of "The Walking Dead" are really amped up for season 6 of the show, and have been talking about how amazing their characters' next journeys will be.
Steven Yeun, who plays Glenn in the show had a rough season 5 and said that their characters will be "completely broken" when fans see them next, and this time, Danai Gurira, who plays Michonne teased that season 6 will be "very powerful and beautiful at the same time."
"It's going to go into so many different components of very intense and then very rich in human moments as well, but like a deeply different roller coaster from last year," she told Entertainment Weekly. "It's definitely a roller coaster. The pace constantly changes up in terms of who you're watching, what you're watching, and where. But at the same time, it's so unpredictable and so unique from anything we've ever done before."
Gurira added that it has been quite the treat for the actors to read the scripts and do them in actual because the shock elements of their roles have kept their jobs pretty exciting.
As for Lauren Cohan, who plays Maggie Greene, she agrees with Gurira regarding the amazing scripts, but jokingly adds that it's quite difficult to do it in actual.
"I don't know if anybody has said this yet but we always joke that the writers write these amazing action sequences from air-conditioned offices," said Cohan. "And I think this season is no exception and definitely rises above. We have the most suffocating beginning to the season that I've experienced yet."
But apart from the action sequences, Cohan believes that it is the characters' emotional developments that would have fans connecting more to the show.
"And I think what's been really interesting is that you see us all kind of make strides in the direction of civility or civilization and a more regimented society," she said. "And it's about being really challenged. So we'll see a ton of challenges and we'll see people the audience has been introduced to as very stable reliable characters crumbling, and I think it's going to be pretty scary. Welcome to 'The Walking Dead.'"
On the other hand, Norman Reedus, who plays Daryl Dixon in the show compared some characters to "wild animals" and wonders how they will fare in a "domestic environment."
"Some of them prefer to be wild animals, and some of them can't figure out how to be anything other than that. So we've come to a place where we can live with the public or live in a community and us having inner turmoil with trying to discover if that's possible at all," he said.
