Statham In The Walking Dead? Probably Not…

There is a rumour shooting around that Jason Statham may appear The Walking Dead as character Negan.  Not so according to honcho Robert Kirkman.

As much as I love Jason Statham, and I mean LOVE, this Negan casting rumor is just a HOAX. But seriously, Jason… Call me. #XOXOXO

Although to keep things on a positive note, he does say “Call me”, so… you never know?  Probably not then.

Negan is a character first introduced in Issue 100 the comics and was the leader of the Saviors, and is a primary antagonist in the Comic Series. He uses his authority and resources to subjugate other communities, such as the Hilltop Colony, The Kingdom, and later the Alexandria Safe-Zone, into paying tribute to The Saviors, in exchange for protection against zombies.
