About 'The Walking Dead' Season 7
While the finale of "The Walking Dead" Season 6 frustrated many fans, there is a lot of expectation regarding what the new season will bring. In a letter to the fans, Nicotero promised, "We have to do an episode that justifies it -- the cliffhanger -- to you. We have to do something so great and so intense that you're like, 'OK, all right, fair play.' That's the challenge that we have, and we're going to do it. We're going to deliver you something fantastic."
Nevertheless, fans can expected the new season to bring new challenges to the character of the series. In an interview with IGN, Nicotero stated, "The main thing about Season 7 is establishing that the world isn't what everybody thinks it is, the world out there. At the end of Season 6, Rick was so confident. 'We're just going to knock out that outpost, we're going to f--k these guys up before they f--k us up,' and it ends with him going, 'Heh, oh well, I had no idea. What I perceived as the world is not even close to what the reality of the world is,' and Negan's there to show him that."
