WALKING DEAD SEASON 3: Our First Look at Danai Gurira as Michonne
Well, I guess I just spoiled myself a bit on The Walking Dead Season 2, which (believe it or not), I’ve yet to watch.
Anyway, for those who are late to the game, Michonne, a sword swinging strong woman who is quite the favorite of readers of the Walking Dead comic finally made her debut at the end of Season 2, and will be an important part of Season 3.
As Season 3 is currently in production, Entertainment Weekly caught up with creator Robert Kirkman, and asked him how Danai Gurira (Treme) is doing as Michonne.
"The essence of the character — her personality, her motives, everything that makes Michonne Michonne — remains intact from the comics," says Robert Kirkman (the creator of the comic and executive producer of the TV adaptation). “But like a lot of things on the show, there will be little tweaks and differences here and there. We saw that her introduction is slightly different from how it was in the comic, and her interaction with Andrea is really going to be a really cool addition to the character that I think will get television viewers up to speed, and they’ll get to know her a lot faster than comic book readers did."You can read more quotes at the source link, but more importantly, EW got an exclusive still, which I have at the top of the post.
