Getting that ideal version took a lot of work. But I'm putting it out there that this is the ideal version." I know that there are all these universe implications where I don't have total control. The plan to bring Rick and Michonne back was in Kang's mind from the very beginning: "From the first pitch I did for the ending of the series, I said to the network and the producers, 'Hey, I really feel in my heart of hearts that the show is not going to feel totally complete unless we have Rick and Michonne back. It was pretty great."Ĭurtis Bonds Baker/AMC When did producers land on this as their series finale ending? We just jumped right back into it like hadn't stopped. "And we really peeled all the layers back on it. "Andy came and stayed with me for a week in L.A.," the director says. That was thanks to some prepping that Lincoln and Nicotero did across the country prior to filming. And yeah, we poured over what was said and what was shot and certainly the relationship to stories in the future, but luckily, we knew a lot of where this was going." This wasn't tons of footage to go through. Greg,, Andy, Danai, and I - we knew pretty much every shot. "We were ramping up this production again after the production had stopped, so it was a smaller crew. "From a filmmaking standpoint, we didn't have this endless amount of time," chief content officer Scott M. ![]() I just think it's meaningful and important for us to take the show out with the crew that did the show.'" The network and other producers ultimately agreed. "Or 'We want to shoot in New Jersey.' And I said, 'Guys, I really want to use the crew from The Walking Dead. "At one point people were like, 'Hey, we want to shoot in Savannah with the Fear the Walking Dead crew,'" Nicotero tells EW. While production wrapped on the finale in April, a crew - including finale director Greg Nicotero - returned to The Walking Dead's base of operations in Senoia, Georgia, four months later in August for a two-day shoot to film the final section with Lincoln and Gurira. How did this final montage come to be? Where and when was it filmed? Which former cast members returned to lend their voices? And where exactly is Rick, anyway? We have answers below! (And check out Greg Nicotero's exclusive storyboards to the scene and answers to the other finale burning questions as well.)Ĭurtis Bonds Baker/AMC When and where was the final Rick and Michonne sequence filmed? Rick looked up and… smiled? The scene then cut back to his children, Judith and RJ, at the Hilltop, where Judith told her little brother, "We get to start over. The final scene ended with Rick's arms raised, surrendering as the helicopter descended from the sky between him and a devastated city across the water. Forever." And with that, we flashed back to more images of other Walking Dead characters over the course of the series as we heard their voices repeat the same words: "We're the ones who live." Then, before Michonne rode her horse straight towards what just may be the biggest herd of zombies we have ever seen, her letter to Judith finished: "Remember what I said. Remain in place with your hands up," and then adding, "C'mon Rick. Michonne then sprung into action, sporting a fancy new samurai-like suit and slicing the head off one walker while galloping by on horseback, as Rick was approached by a helicopter informing him that "you've been located and are instructed to surrender. So much more than all of this made me who I am." "I think of the dead all the time," Rick wrote in his letter as the faces of friends both living and dead- shout out to T-Dog! - flashed across the screen. That's because as we saw Rick (shoeless and wearing jeans and a Civic Republic Military jacket) in one scene put his boots, journal, and phone in a bag and then toss it on a boat to avoid it being confiscated by an approaching CRM helicopter, we also saw Michonne with that very same bag, journal, boots and phone in another - the clues that have led her on her journey to find her lost husband.
