Jadis Returns

If you watch The Walking Dead online, you know that Jadis left the mains series alongside Rick (Andrew Lincoln).

Heck, this might mean we'll finally get some intel on what became of Rick.

Then again, the franchise might want to save those reveals for, you know, the trilogy of movies announced.

On a side note: Does anyone else feel like these movies are no longer happening?

It wouldn't surprise me if Rick returned for the series finale, or something.

“We are thrilled to have the terrific Pollyanna McIntosh back as Jadis, and we’re excited for viewers to see how she collides with the characters in this part of the Universe,” said Gimple.

“In our story, years have passed -- we’ll get hints of what happened with that fateful helicopter ride and learn Jadis has new allies and alliances; she is a big part of connecting the CRM and Three Circles mythology that’s seen throughout all three series. We can’t wait to share it all with fans of the TWDU,” said Gimple.

“I love the character of Jadis and I love this world so getting to inhabit her again in collaboration with the talented team at The Walking Dead: World Beyond in beautiful Richmond, Virginia was a joy," said McIntosh.

"I hope audiences will catch up with the first season now so they can fully enjoy this epic final season in October,” the actress added.
