Other outlets picked up the story including EW, IGN, EOnline, Variety, MTV, TV Overmind, and TVLine.
It’s so great to see Jeff getting such an important role. Congratulations, Jeff!
This is such awesome news. I don’t follow the comic’s so I don’t really know who Negan is as a character but any role that JDM plays will be great. Bad or good guy it doesn’t matter. I can’t wait. The Walking Dead and Supernatural are my two favorite shows so “worlds collide” as a friend recently said about that. Can’t wait. Rick Grimes and Papa Winchester toe to toe.
