A Negan Spin-Off Series Has Been Discussed With Jeffrey Dean Morgan

AMC’s The Walking Dead is coming to an end this year, after a long run as one of television’s most popular series. Jeffrey Dean Morgan, who came onto the show during its sixth season as the iconic Negan, is glad to have been a part of it, but still thinks more could be done with his character.

“There’ve been things discussed with me and network people,” Morgan told TVLine in a new interview when asked about the possibility of returning in a spin-off series. “We’ll see. I mean, Negan could still find his way six feet under [before Season 11 concludes], so that could be a problem unless it’s a prequel.

Morgan went on to note that he thinks there are still stories to tell with Negan and that the way the current season of The Walking Dead is going, he thinks more could be done. “I kind of know how the season has worked itself so far, and we’re cracking open windows here and there that would lend themselves to more Negan story.”

Morgan was also asked if he would be interested should a spin-off series become available, to which he jumped at the idea.

“I do love Negan,” Morgan says. “There’s an amazing opportunity to dive a lot deeper into this man who I think has become very interesting the last few years. I’m certainly not opposed to keeping him alive for a bit longer and finding out more about him.

“I’ll be very honest with you, if I was to do more, I would like to move forward with the story and not backward. I loved what we showed [of his history] in ‘Here’s Negan,’ but now we’ve done a lot of that story. We could do a short series on how the Saviors came to be, which would be kind of interesting, but I’m more looking forward.”
