When Did Maggie Have the Baby on Walking Dead
The Walking Dead: Maggie will non give nativity in season viii
Lauren Cohan and showrunner Scott Grand. Gimple explicate the pregnancy timeline and what's next for Maggie
Entertainment Weekly volition exist revealing our latest The Walking Expressionless covers on Thursday, Sept. 21. To atomic number 82 up to the unveiling, we are posting a TWD news item every day.
Remember when Maggie on The Walking Dead announced she was meaning? Doesn't that seem like forever ago? That's considering it kind of was. Merely besides, in another way, it kind of wasn't. Allow me to explain.
Maggie (played by Lauren Cohan) first revealed she was with child back in 2015 during the first half of season half dozen. Yet, yet, no baby. Not simply that, just when I asked showrunner Scott M. Gimple whether we should expect Maggie to give nascency in the upcoming flavour viii (which premieres on Oct. 22), he was pretty blunt in his reply. "Nosotros shouldn't," replied Gimple.
What gives? For how long can this adult female actually exist pregnant? Well, if you have a wait at the timeline of the prove, it has actually not been all that long. The on-screen timeline of events for flavour 7 was really only 19 days, according to co-executive producer Denise Huth on the most recent Blu-ray release, and Gimple tells EW that flavour 8 picks up simply a few days after that — meaning Maggie even so has a style to go before her and Glenn's child arrives. "It's quite early on in, as it was in the book," says showrunner Gimple virtually the pregnancy.
So Gimple says that unless something radical changes in the terminal two months of filming, that at that place will be no birth, significant a span of over two-and-a-one-half seasons from when nosotros found out Maggie was carrying. But because of the show'south considerably slowed down timeline, the character is not even at the point of showing notwithstanding. "I ever want to put a little ticker tape along the bottom of the episode saying how far into the apocalypse and into the pregnancy nosotros are," laughs Cohan. "Because I'm playing newly pregnant for a really long time. Only the truth of the matter is, information technology's only been a matter of weeks since Negan killed Glenn."
Of course, there'south likewise that possible time spring to consider. We saw a scene of an older Rick with a bedside cane in the season 8 trailer that seems to mirror a time jump that takes place in the comic book on which the prove is based. Simply that time jump in the comic takes identify subsequently the state of war with Negan, and the war on Tv set is just starting, so who knows what really is going on at that place. (Andrew Lincoln talked with us about the mystery scene here.)
If The Walking Expressionless is going to go all Lost-mode and give us some flash-forward that happen simultaneously with the current timeline, then it is entirely possible we will see future Maggie with her kid in season viii without seeing her actually requite birth. Regardless, Cohan also says there is no demand to worry about Maggie slowing down to protect her unborn baby, and that she'll be out there on the front lines whenever necessary.
"She's in a mindset of doing everything she can to inspire at Hilltop and to inspire the people that she's encouraged to bring together the forces," says Cohan. "The symbolism of her beingness with her troops is really essential. And she needs to inspire confidence not just in the Hilltoppers, merely in Rick and Daryl and Ezekiel, and to be somewhat fearless and say, I have this group'southward strength on my side and that's what'south going to go on me safe, and then I'chiliad not afraid to get upward to a reasonable bespeak with you all to set this plan in motion and really fine-tune the wild agglomeration planning. So she does that, and I call up, honestly, she does that to instill the confidence in herself that this will work and information technology's pretty reasonable."
Cohan also points out that a pregnancy is not as limiting physically equally some may think, as she learned while watching others work out at her gym. "There's an amazing amount that you can do," she says. "The place I work out is a testament to this. I exercise a pretty crazy workout, and there are women in that location up to the end of their tertiary trimester doing the same thing. They say that in pregnancy you can operate on a physical level to the same that yous have been. You don't want to up it once yous're pregnant, just you can continue on the same pattern, and she's been living in this type of a world and this type of combat for a really long time."
Lesser line: Await to see plenty of badass Maggie Rhee in flavor 8. "Of grade, the life in her torso is precious," says Cohan. "Only in terms of what she's capable of, the necessity of inspiring and maintaining that hope and inspiration is greater than what her fearfulness is over her reservations of going into gainsay again."
