Has Andrew Lincoln just confirmed Rick Grimes ISN'T Negan's victim?
The actor was speaking at San Diego's Comic Con when he seemingly revealed that he wouldn't die at the hands of Negan.
Discussing the loss of one cast member at the start of season seven, he commented: "It's a really s***** start to the season."
The 42-year-old also revealed his character will be "a different man" after his encounter with Negan.
He explained: "He’s powerless for the first time since he woke up from the coma. Everything he's worked for, for two years, has been shattered in 24 hours.

Andrew said his character will be different following Negan's arrival
"So he's not in a good space and I think if he makes it through the first episode, then he's different. He'll be a different man."
However, his change in character might not be a good thing, as Andrew hinted: "I think the blurring of lines between who's the hero and who's the villain is part of the DNA of the show."
Appearing at the event alongside Steve Yeun (Glenn), Norman Reedus (Daryl) and Danai Gurira (Michonne), he added that there was going to be a war between the Saviours, the Hilltop Colony and the Kingdom.
Teasing fans about what they can expect, he described it as "one of the greatest showdowns we've had on the show since Terminus".
