Danai Gurira, who plays Michonne on AMC’s hit series The Walking Dead reflects on her final day shooting for the series’ 10th season.
Earlier this year, Danai Gurira confirmed that she would be leaving The Walking Dead during the series’ 10th season, which premiered on Sunday night. In an interview with comicbook.com, Danai Gurira reflected on her overwhelming final day on the set of The Walking Dead:
“It was overwhelming. I mean, I haven’t talked about it yet because we haven’t really said I was done yet, so it was kinda just talking about it for the first time now but it was really overwhelming, the love. They got me because I thought I was going home.”
Danai Gurira joined The Walking Dead during the series’ third season. After nearly eight years of playing Michonne, she will now officially be retired from the series and will move on to new projects that include Marvel Studios’ upcoming sequel, Black Panther II.
As for whether or not Danai Gurira’s exit from The Walking Dead will be open-ended or conclusive, she played coy with her answer:
“We will have to see. You can do nothing with those words! We will have to see. I know you!”
