tvline.com/2018/05/29/the-walking-dead-andrew-lincoln-leaving-season-9-rick-grimes/It looks like next season will be Andrew Lincoln/Rick Grimes final season on The Walking Dead. The rumor going around right now is Norman Reedus/Daryl will be the new lead. I think he can handle it, but I also feel like the producers should bring in another actor or actress to be a new co-lead too. I'm not sure who, but I think going with someone established and who already has a fanbase could be a good idea. Any Suggestion?

Anson Mount could always use work.

How many lines has he had the past four seasons? Honestly? I would argue less than 20. He just stands around. Rick is the heart and soul of the show and has been since the beginning. He is also the best actor of the cast and a FAR better actor than Reedus. I think it will turn into even more of an ensemble show than it is now.

The obvious choice for a new lead would be Morgan, but he wandered off somewhere...

Daryl taking the lead I guess would depend on how Rick "leaves". Remember both Daryl and Maggie were conspiring against Rick at the end of last season so maybe one of them might be responsible for his departure. Maybe Micchone will take the lead.

He barely speaks...not to mention he looks like he hasn't showered in a couple years. To be honest, I don't know how the show can go on without Andrew Lincoln. It really sucks that he's leaving. But in truth, the show has lost it's luster anyway.

One actor I recently thought of is Phillip Winchester. I think he would be a good leader on the series. I would also love to see them cast Danielle Harries and Ryan Hurst in supporting roles.

Well I'm hoping they change their minds on this. This is Rick's show. It started with him waking up to this world, it wouldn't make sense just getting rid of him towards the end and start following someone else. If they go ahead with this, it will probably be the worst decision in the history of TV.
Daryl as the lead doesn't make sense thematically. Carl would have made sense, since he's Rick's successor, but he's gone now. The next best choice that at least makes some bit of sense is Negan.
They'd need some seriously good writing to make it work though, but Negan makes the most sense and would be the best choice as the new lead.

It's got nothing to do with how much dialogue he has or how much he does though. It's got to do with the story. Story wise, he doesn't make sense as a successor to Rick. Carl made sense, but he's gone now. After that, Negan would be best choice, thematically.

Since this deviates from the books, would they dare make Rick turn zombie? I couldn't handle that, I was upset when Aaron's boyfriend wandered off as a zombie, it bothered me to think of him out there eating brains etc.
