AMC has released the first photo of Andrew Lincoln as Rick Grimes in the TV adaptation of the popular comic book series The Walking Dead. Robert Kirkman, creator/writer of the comic and executive producer on the series says, “Writing this book for the past seven years I’ve gotten very close to the character of Rick. Andrew Lincoln embodies every aspect of the character that fans know and love. After seeing this photo I don’t think that there will be a doubt in anyone’s mind that he’s perfect for the role.”
The Walking Dead premieres on AMC in October. Stay tuned to Pop Culture Zoo for more information and photos as they become available.
