With the premiere just weeks away, the 39-year-old actress, who plays Michonne in the AMC hit series, has teased the first episode will be “unpredictable” and “deeply different”.
The American star has warned fans not to expect anything they have seen before but to prepare to be blown away when the show returns next month.
“It is a deeply different season premiere — deeply, deeply different and unpredictable and very, very rich in the story that’s being told and powerfully acted and all of that,” Danai told Entertainment Weekly.
She added: “If you thought, ‘Well, I’ve seen this, I’ve seen that, so I can be prepared for what’s coming next’ — no, you can’t. You won’t be prepared.”

“It’s definitely a season that is going to knock everyone off their feet. That, I can guarantee you.”

With all out war expected between Alexandria’s leader Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) against Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) and the Saviours, Danai admitted the clashes will come as a shock.
“The clashes that we’re in take turns no one’s going to expect. And at the same time, it remains palpably human,” she said.
