Only in the zombie apocalypse can someone get away with calling themselves a king. But when you have a tiger laying by your side I guess you could call yourself anything and no one would fight you on it. Down, Shiva. We respect King Ezekiel.
The latest The Walking Dead Season 7 teaser shines the spotlight on King Ezekiel and it’s about damn time we see more of him. Little is known about the show’s adaptation of Ezekiel, but comic book Ezekiel is pretty level-headed. He keeps his cards close to his chest and never reveals his next move. He’s not quick to trust, but has the respect of his followers.
Logan Miller, a new The Walking Dead cast member who plays a Kingdom soldier, recently teased details about Ezekiel during an interview with ComicBook.com .
“The only thing I can even say is it's unlike anything that's been seen on Walking Dead so far,” Miller told ComicBook.com. “It's crazy, everybody knows Ezekiel and the Kingdom from the comics. I think depicting that on screen, it has a crazy world to it that almost feel to me very Mad Max -ish or like living in the realm of the Thunder Dome or Evil Dead 3, Army of Darkness situation.”
Miller added, “Ezekiel is a fantastical character, seeing him it, kind of blowing the veil back and seeing what he's actually about, I think fans are really going enjoy. He's such a unique character, it's going to bring some heightened drama, I suppose, to The Walking Dead .”
Miller was also in the latest The Walking Dead Season 7 teaser. He tells someone, most likely Morgan, they are not allowed to tell their community about The Kingdom. This could mean trouble for Rick’s group.
What do you think about Ezekiel? Is he another threat to Rick’s group? Let us know in the comments section below. Check out the trailer above to see what’s going in Ezekiel’s Kingdom.
