Walking Dead Season 3 Will Introduce The Governor

If there is one villain in the Walking Dead Franchise that we hear about all the time its The Governor. I unlike many of you have never read the comics so I do not know the character. Unfortunately for me another site reporting on the character completely spoiled a major plot point for Walking Dead Season 3 and The Governor. Me not being a jerk I will keep this post spoiler free.

Staying true to their past casting practices relative unknown David Morrissey has been cast to play the ultimate villain The Governor. A BAFTA Award nominee, Morrissey has appeared in many acclaimed British series including “State of Play,” “Meadowlands,” “The Deal” and “Blackpool.” Along with his celebrated work in television, Morrissey is also known for his leading roles in feature films such as The Reaping, The Other Boleyn Girl, Centurion, The Water Horse, Nowhere Boy and Blitz. He recently wrappedWelcome to the Punch opposite James McAvoy and Mark Strong.”

In a nutshell The Governor is the leader of a large group of survivors and in Season 3 of The Walking Dead he will bring pain and suffering to the Grimes family and Rick will regret the day that they ever crossed paths.

This is of course assuming that the series continues to at least loosely follow the graphic novels that it is based off of. There has been alot of internet speculation that although The Governor will appear in the next season of Walking Dead he will not have the same role as he did in the graphic novels. The Governor was such a popular character from The Walking Dead series that the graphic novels creator Robert Kirkman did a book entirely for him titled The Walking Dead: Rise of the Governor.

You can read quite a few details on The Governor as well as spoilers on the wikipedia page devoted to him. As noted it contains some major plot spoilers so read only if you do not object to having major plot points revealed for Walking Dead Season 3.

The pace of the first half of Walking Dead Season 2 was quite slow but the second half has already started to pick up and with Season 3 introducing the Governor it will only get better and better. Season 3 of Walking Dead will appear on AMC this October!

Walking Dead Season 3 Update:

News is flying in fast and heavy and The Walking Dead season 3 will be bringing much more then just the Governor. A whole slew of great new characters are coming including our favorite katana toting zombie slayer. Read more here

    Sorry I was an English major and I don’t care about grammar on the net. Alot v A lot is simply being anal about a common error. As long as I can understand what the person is writing I don’t care. It’s really L337 speak and lolroflomgerson and people who tAlK lIkE dIs that annoy me. A person trying to write and making a common error isn’t at ALL reason for me to get in their shit. It makes you seem like an ass when you correct something that even an editor might overlook every now and then.

      I’d love to put my Major in your English
      - shut up
        
        shut up u stupid fucks
      - Dooboodooboo
        
        *you stupid fucks. lol seriously though, writing on Internet blogs and comment pages is not the same as writing proper articles. In the words of Margaret Atwood, texting and internet writing is more a form of “smoke signals” than written text.

      No way an English major condones the use of “alot.” I repeat, no way. You are a fraud.

      IF you are really an English major, you are a perfect example of the reason why the English language is becoming bastardized and ruined. Spelling IS important. Diction IS important. Composition IS important. Grammar IS important. To accept less, especially by an English major, is the epitome of laziness and apathy.
      - stupid cunts
        
        English is actually a made up language just like all of the other languages, therefore you should shut the fuck up and deal with other people’s mistakes.

A person who makes fun of Grammar is likely a white person who has a centre of the Universe mind and they think English is the only language on the planet!

Hello Eddie. I’m surprised that you aren’t complaining about grammar/calling someone a fag/misspelling words/describing your grammatical pet peeves. I am also eagerly awaiting season 3. Did anyone else think that the Governer kinda looked like a chick?

  That wasn’t The Governor you saw, it was a new character by the name of Michonne…and yes, it is a ‘chick’. The Governor doesn’t appear until Season 3.

i am waiting for the next episode or the next season of this movie/TV show. i am really excited and curious about how they had been infected. are they going to find a cure? arg! i am excited!!!!!!! really cant wait.
- Walkingdead1fan
  
  If they find a cure the show will end!!!!!!
  - No! :-)
    
    Well not really, if they do find a cure there is still millions maybe billions of zombies left on the planet! So it maybe will not end if they do find a cure
Layne

from Edmonton , Canada cant wait till season 3 me and my wife love this show have followed it from the first episode
- Walkingdead1fan
  
  I will always watch the walking dead the best show on TV!
  
  There is never any good shows on anymore since season 2 ended!!
Sagesparta

Introducing spartacus in the zombie world now that would be fun to watch….. Haha
- Deadwalkingdead
  
  Sagesparta I think walking dead Spartacus would be bad ass

Hey peoples. if you like this show then buy the comics. They are so much more detailed and in depth, they are in fact brilliant. The TV show has strayed so much from the comics that I have convinced myself that the TV show is a completely different story and this allows me to enjoy the show for what it is. The TV show is great too and I think they have the greatest ZOMBIES ever to appear on screen, well done for that.
- waaahhh??
  
  agreed.
Paul

seans the governer
Paul_booth

when does season 3 start
Gasber

Anyone know when does season 3 start?
lori is useless!

season 3 starts in october! merle is back, the governer is introduced, and michone my favorite character !! v
- Nichole
  
  She’s my favorite too! The things she did in the comic…well, I don’t want to give any spoilers, but she almost made me puke! Hopefully you’ll understand what I mean by that..
  
  I wonder if they’ll stick with the Governor having a roommate, too.
  
  I also agree that Lori is useless. She’s definitely one of my least favorite characters, in the comic and the show!
lori is useless!

michonne** oops .. since all you people are so intrigued with correct spelling.
JUIC3

Danny Trejo would be by far the better cast to act as the governor
- Nichole
  
  Absolutely!! They did mention that they wanted to keep with casting lesser-known actors/actresses though, so I would guess that would be a reason they wouldn’t have gone with him. But then again, they put in Michael Rooker and Norman Reedus… Hmm… Yeah, they should have just gone with Danny Trejo!
  I often like to pick out characters I really hate and imagine who I think would have been a better choice for the actor/actress. And I really can’t stand Lori and Andrea. I dug Andrea in the comics, but I always hated Lori there, too! I still haven’t decided who could have better filled those shoes though.

Carnt wait

TWD fan

Can’t wait for season 3. Hopefully Rick puts Lori in her place. It annoyed the heck out of me that she’s upset at Rick for killing Shane. Would she have been happier if Shane came back instead of Rick. I think yes. It seemed like she cared more about Shane then her husband.
- Inconsideratepeoplesuck
  
  Fucked it up for anyone who has not seen the end of season two yet. Well played squire

I agree TWD fan that bitch should’ve been slapped lol

What happened to walking dead? Why are we bloody talking about english crap. Id like to just say that the zombie slayer wit the katana was totally awsome, especially with those two zombies chained to the back of him/her so that he dont get eaten. The whole look of the character is awesome, even how he/she cut off their arms so they cant attack..
Jelaczj

Exactly people… we are talking about the walking dead… not the english subject
BADMANBILL

EXACTLY ALL OF YOU PEOPLE NEED TO LOOK AT YOUR SELF AND SEE THAT IT ISNT ALL ABOUT YOU. ANYWAY WHO IS LOOKING FORWARD TILL SEASON 3 CANT WAIT TILL OCTOBER

BADMANBILL; shut up.
Pattersoncrystal78

I love this show…..Imade my husband watch with me and now he loves it. I cant wait until season 3
mrslantz22

We are very eagerly awaiting Season 3! My husband and I are very disappointed that they killed Dale off And what is Lori’s problem?! Rick gave Shane chance after chance, but his lust was too much! He had it coming and could have killed Carl and Rick! She should be glad Rick did what he did:)
Asdforiginaq

70% of these comments arent about the show…lol :3

The walking dead guy

So flipping excited!!!!!
- Name.
  
  Wow. What has the world come to? Just live and let live. Jeez. I hope we do turn into zombies and eat people’s faces.
not talkn shit just sayin

I have never left a comment on a blog or anything…due to the fact I have a life. So the ppl who took time out to comment on grammer and ppl who commented on comments about grammer must not have a life outside of the internet. Also very funny to see how easly ppl cuss at online knowing they cant do anything. Atleast say something about the blog topic. Season 3 will be interesting to see, really trying not to read any spoilers but I want to know. Hopefully I can hold out until it starts.

  Hypocrite…..lol
Supermetfan1

Hello, I am 11 and I love the walking dead. I was viewing the comments and the blog for info on season 3. Not all this grammar and spelling stuff. It is very childish of you people, what do you think will happen if you keep trolling all day long? Nothing, nothing will happen. If you think you know everything go get a life and maybe become an ELA or English Language Arts teacher. Give the guy a break, what did he do, one or two grammar or spelling mistakes. So what?! He must’ve done lots of work writing this blog just for you! Now let’s stay on track and talk about the walking dead not about all this grammar crap.
- Ahchalart
  
  I don’t believe for a second ur 11. Fess up ur a chicken hark aren’t u!!!
Gc57

At 11yrs old you really should not be watching this show. Your parents should be a bit more careful with what they let you watch.
Ahchalart

Wow, can’t believe all the crap I’ve just read. Wish people were more occupied with writing valued comments about the up coming third season:((
Cammyhenry

Yo bro so when dOes it start?????
