This weekend, some of the cast of The Walking Dead sat down for a panel at this years Dragoncon. Unfortunately, there isn’t a lot of new information to really report. Oddly enough audience members were told 8 times to NOT mention Frank Darabont and the cast made almost no mention of him. The only comments from the cast about Darabont was from Steven Yeun who says that they don’t call the zombies “zombies” saying it was a “frankism” the other mention of Darabont was from Jon Bernthal who, after a fan asked why he’s lasted longer than his comic counterport, said that
“Frank and I, when we started, we really set out to do something very specific with Shane and I knew he would last longer than he does in the graphic novel,” Bernthal said. “Knowing that your character could bite it at any moment is tough, especially when you’re working with a bunch of people that you really, really love…”
But other than that, there wasn’t really any new information about Darabont or the show.
