Chandler Riggs has sent The Walking Dead fans into a frenzy after teasing Carl Grimes’ potential return on Twitter.
The eye-patched son of Rick Grimes passed away in the AMC show back in season 8, after finding himself on the walkers’ dinner menu.
But with flashbacks often utilised as a neat way to revisit deceased characters, it wouldn’t surprise us to see Carl back onscreen at some point.
Retweeting a ComicBook article about the zombie hit’s “plans to bring some dead characters back”, Chandler simply attached a wide-eyed emoji.
In other words: keep your eyes peeled folks, because this could really be about to happen.
After reading his tweet, Chandler’s followers couldn’t contain their excitement, with one user writing: “Don’t mess with my emotions!!!!!”.
“How will this work? I still am mad that Carl is dead!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He never got to find love like he does in the comics!!!!”, added someone else.
“Whosever idea to take Carl off was a bad one. Especially since Rick is gone. He could’ve taking Rick’s place. Everyone was mad when Carl was killed! [sic].”
The Walking Dead airs on Mondays at 9pm on FOX in the UK. You can also catch up on the show via NOW TV. In the US, the show airs on Sundays at 9/8c on AMC.
