New Walking Dead spin-off photo reunites Rick and Michonne for the first time in almost 5 years
A new photo from the set of The Walking Dead's Rick and Michonne spin-off has seen the characters reunite for the first time in five years. In the new snap, which you can check out below, actors Andrew Lincoln and Danai Gurira can be seen side by side as they run away from an approaching zombie.
