We're With Her – Danai Gurira

This is your final season on The Walking Dead. Other than being super prepared for a zombie attack, what will you take away from the experience?

A greater level of physical endurance. And a deep understanding of the amount of work and collaboration and camaraderie and goodwill and family that goes into creating a show that has this level of staying power.

What about your character Michonne’s sword? That would be nice to hang in the living room.

They didn’t give me the sword. I tried.

Why wouldn’t they give it to you? I mean, what else are they going to do with it?

We’ll see. I consider it an ongoing negotiation.

Did you like playing such a tough character, riding a horse and swinging a sword?
