Report- Maggie Greene to Take More of a Leadership Role in The Walking Dead

Lauren Cohan, who stars as Maggie Greene in The Walking Dead, has teased that her character will be taking on more of a leadership role in the future of the show.

Cohan is quoted as saying the following:

“It’s been really interesting, because Deanna saw things in Maggie that she didn’t necessarily see in herself when they got to Alexandria, and I think the most important part was that she could be this intermediary. She understood the way her group functioned, but she also has that hopeful vision and aligned with that hopeful vision that Deanna had to create a sustainable community.

And this is all coming before she’s pregnant, before she knows that they’re going to have a baby, and so it’s very fortunate that she gains these lessons from Deanna. And then what we get to see as we progress is Rick saying that Deanna was right. These are the things you have to do, and he’s realizing that Maggie may be able to deal with certain people that he isn’t able to. He’s, well, you know, brutish.

So, we have this sort of combined approach to a lot of the future challenges that we’ll see this season, and it’s fantastic. I feel really lucky to have had both Scott Wilson and Tovah Feldshuh to have as Maggie’s mentors, because they’ve been my mentors too, and these actors, I mean, they’ve just done everything. To be able to learn from them and then have that portray that in the show has been really fun.”

Maggie’s growth was evident in the recent “Knots Untie” episode of The Walking Dead, where she successfully makes a deal with Hilltop Colony leader Gregory. Her time with the Alexandria Safe-Zones’s previous leader (Deanna Monroe) is responsible for Maggie emerging as a leader.
