Iedereen die bekend is met de comics van The Walking Dead weet wat een pshyco bad ass The Governor is. Daarom deed ik en velen andere even goed slikken toen bekend werd dat Engelse acteur David Morrissey deze rol zou gaan spelen in de gelijknamige AMC TV serie. Want The Governor lijkt op Danny Trejo en ook wilde special effects guru Tom Savini graag deze rol spelen. Want laten we eerlijk zijn die heeft ook die biker look van The Governor. Maar goed, hier onder kan je een set foto zien, en heb ik de comic versie er maar even bij gezet. En moest je ook even heel hard lachen??

"Seeing The Walking Dead come to life on AMC has been a real thrill for me, obviously, and moving into Season 3 I'm even more excited than ever because now I feel like we're really getting to 'the good stuff,'" Kirkman tells TVGuide.com. "Having The Governor in the mix is going to fundamentally change the show in all kinds of awesome and exiting ways. And David Morrissey totally rocks!"

For those worried that AMC might be a diluted version of the villain who went on to take something, ahem, very important away from Rick in the comics, fear not! "The Governor in the show is definitely going to be The Governor in the comic," Kirkman told us following the Season 2 finale. "I think that he's definitely going to be a character that people love to hate and are absolutely entertained by, but also somewhat terrified of. He's definitely going to be a very important character and a very nuanced character. We are not going to be watering him down."
