Season Eight [SPOILER ALERT]
Maggie has been pregnant on The Walking Dead for a few seasons now, but we won't be meeting the little one any time soon.
Executive producer Scott M. Gimple told Entertainment Weekly that "we shouldn't" expect her to give birth any time soon. “It’s quite early in, as it was in the book,” he explained.
Lauren Cohan, who plays the grieving widow, told the magazine that although it's been several seasons since Maggie learned she was pregnant, it hasn't been that long in the timeline of the show.
"I always want to put a little ticker tape along the bottom of the episode saying how far into the apocalypse and into the pregnancy we are,” she said. “Because I’m playing newly pregnant for a really long time. But the truth of the matter is, it’s only been a matter of weeks since Negan killed Glenn.”
Just because Maggie is pregnant doesn't mean she'll hesitate to help the all-out war against Negan in any way she can. (Speaking of the all-out war, check out the newest art for Season Eight below!)
"Of course, the life in her body is precious,” Cohan said. “But in terms of what she’s capable of, the necessity of inspiring and maintaining that hope and inspiration is greater than what her fear is over her reservations of going into combat again.”
The Walking Dead returns Oct. 22 on AMC.
