The Walking Dead season 10: Michonne’s final resting place teased?
NOW TV subscribers in the UK will also be able to watch episodes on the streaming platform either live or on catch up.
The second half of season 10 is going to be bidding farewell to fan favourite Michonne (Danai Gurira).
The actress will be bowing out of the show and fans are eager for any details about her exit.
Gurira is departing to pursue other projects with The Walking Dead propelling her into the spotlight.
AMC has released a first-look image from the last eight episodes with a shot of Michonne and Virgil (Kevin Carroll) on a mission.
In the snap, the pair are going to the island naval base where he and his family live.
He’s there to help Michonne and Oceanside and giving weapons to them to fight Alpha (Samantha Morton) and the Whisperers.
The Walking Dead showrunner Angela Kang told TV Line: “I’m excited to have the audience see Danai’s work during this last arc on the show, because she’s just amazing. She brings so much to every episode she’s in.”

Kang explained Michonne’s final episodes would “showcases her leadership and strength, and her love for her people and her family”.
Although details remain vague, Michonne’s decision will be linked to Virgil.
Kang told Entertainment Weekly Virgil will “trigger” something in Michonne which leads her to depart.
He also used the word “mercy”, something which reminded her of Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) and others she’d lost.

Kang explained: “Because there is this very deep connection to her family and Carl.
“Siddiq was really important to Carl. And so then he was really important to Rick and Michonne too.
“And I think being able to have this comment that immediately ties both the love of her life and this dear friend who was like family to her who just died — it all kind of worked.
“It just felt like it kind of did this nice triple duty in the moment and our actors did an amazing job playing it.”
The Walking Dead season 10 returns on February 23 on AMC and on February 24 on FOX UK.
