Nobody puts Baby in a corner.
But that’s exactly where Negan now is.
Well, that could have gone worse.

Things weren’t looking great forJeffrey Dean Morgan’s Neganduring the season finale ofThe Walking Dead: Dead City.
And then the Dama offered Negan… a job???
“He’s in a position that he didn’t anticipate being in certainly.”

“Yeah, she’s got Negan,” confirms Morgan.
“She’s a bit of a chess player and I don’t think Negan was prepared for her.
But he did not anticipate what the Dama is bringing to the table.
Of course, there is one upside to that, according to the actor.
“Any time he can get put into a corner, fun things are going to happen.
Because he’s in a bad position right now, and he knows it.
“Lisa Emery is another actor that I wanted so badly in this show.
I was a hugeOzarkfan.
I loved her character and thought she should have won the f—ing Emmy for it.”
Morgan was such a fan, he became Emery’s biggest advocate behind the scenes.
And we got her!
I couldn’t believe it.
I’ve been dying to work with her, so what a privilege to work opposite someone like that.
And now, with the season 2 renewal, they will continue to have her.
“I think we were exceedingly lucky with our casting this year,” says Morgan.
Especially now that Negan is once again on the ropes.
