The Walking Dead is back and shocked the world with its midseason 6 premiere earlier this week, and Andrew Lincoln has been teasing a little more about what's to come in future episodes and in particular, the character of Negan, played by Jeffrey Dean Morgan.

Speaking to Variety, Lincoln teased: "I can't really go into great detail about that, but all I know is that from the comic books, he's an incredibly funny, incredibly charming and lethal leader.
"And I know that we've got Jeffrey Dean Morgan who is all of those things, and... All I will say is, I think people will be very happy when they see his entrance.
"He's unashamedly psychotic. He's unapologetic about his means, his ways of getting his points across, and getting things done. He's absolutely unapologetic."
Lincoln also touched on Carl being shot in the latest episode of the show, and said "it marks a very interesting turning point in Rick and Carl's relationship."
The actor continues: "I think that's a really interesting psychological battleground; the father figure and a parent that cares desperately about and would give his life for his son, sometimes can be smothering and not value the son enough or not listen to the son as a true leader in his own right. Whereas someone else may offer that, which is very interesting."
The Walking Dead continues Sundays on AMC in the US, and Mondays on FOX in the UK.
