The Walking Dead's Lauren Cohan Says Defending Negan In Finale Made Her Feel Like 'Throwing Up'
How would you feel trusting a man who murdered your husband, let alone enough to have him watch over your child? If you're Walking Dead actress Lauren Cohan, it could make you sick. In the Season 11 mid-season finale, entitled «Acts of God,» Maggie asks Negan to watch her son stating that she started to trust him. «You saved him at Riverbend,» Maggie tells Negan, played by Jeffrey Dean Morgan. «Whatever else happens, and whatever else has happened, I will never forget that.»
What fans haven't forgotten is the fact that Negan killed Maggie's husband Glenn back in the Season 7 premiere. Earlier this season, Negan finally explained why he killed Glenn and Abraham, asking her if she doesn't realize what it feels to be on the losing side of a massacre adding that he didn't want to be a failure of a leader. This evolution of her character isn't exactly something Cohan is excited about.
«It felt like throwing up,» Cohan tells Entertainment Weekly about her reaction to this development. «It just came at a time when I had to leave. I was not willing to let anybody come with me. And I knew the only place I could leave Hershel was with them.»
Cohan continued with how much she hated it but understands to a degree why Maggie did what she did. «I absolutely hated it. And I was like, 'I think the reason I hate this is also why she hates it.' 'She' being Maggie. It's like 'Ugh, this is this moment, and this is what this is, but I'm going by myself, and I have to finish this, and you have to take care of my kid. And right now you're the best person for it.' And, you know, he's not going to be alone with him. I feel like I'm just justifying all these reasons, but it is true. So yeah, it's huge, that moment.»
Going forward though, Cohan
