A recent interview with a former star of The Walking Dead recently confirmed that character deaths are just as surprising for the stars of the show as they are for even the most devoted fans.
Carl Grimes (Chandler Riggs) played a major part in the series, and continued his role into season eight.
Unfortunately, despite surviving until the end of Kirkman’s comic book run, the TV version of Carl was not long for this world.
The courageous teenage son of Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) kept his resolve to the very end, sacrificing himself to let his companions escape while he suffered a bite to the abdomen which eventually killed him.
