Even though Strand had helped the group, there is still a lot of skepticism regarding his character. Fans believe that he could be the a villainous character, like Negan in "The Walking Dead." Domingo was able to address the matter during an interview with The Wrap.
He said, "Who am I? Am I Negan? I don't know, am I? I wasn't completely schooled on the original show, but these archetypes are so strong. I remember people questioning whether I was the Negan character, and I asked, well what is that? And I was told he's good with words, he's got a sense of humor, he's dark but he's vicious. And I thought, oh, that's interesting, but I'm not sure."
Meanwhile, Kim Dickens, who plays the role of Madison, also shared some interesting details about Strand. She stated that he will surely bring some challenges for the other characters. She said, "He's offered us safe passage [on The Abigail], yet we offered him safe passage to his house. So there's an obligation, without really sort of reconciling our views on how we morally adjust to these situations. It causes some conflict and difficult dilemmas."
"Fear The Walking Dead" Season 2 premiere on AMC this April 10.
