The cat’s finally out of the bag – Andrew Lincoln is leaving The Walking Dead in Season 9. Before we jump into reactions – here’s Andrew at San Diego Comic Con 2018 breaking the news of his character’s departure from the show:

Watch Andrew Lincoln's tearful goodbye to the 'Walking Dead.' Full panel report from #SDCC2018 https://t.co/dbwKh61AiS pic.twitter.com/ZqT3lbC4mA

We compiled the best social media reactions from the cast (and Yvette Nicole Brown) below.


I truly believe Andrew Lincoln is the best leading man on TV. He has made us all better with his leadership, dedication, heart, and generosity. I couldn’t be thankful enough for the time I’ve gotten to work with him and learn from him. It’s been an honor, sir. #SDCC #TWDFamily pic.twitter.com/r23gfkid7n

Now dear Andy has talked about it at @sandiegocomicconinternational I can say that I’m genuinely excited for the Walking Dead fans despite the grief of it. The man’s leaving the show in a pretty damn awesome way in Season 9 and you will NOT be disappointed with what’s next. As for me, I’m a lucky bugger for getting to work with him as much as I do and to get to know this honest, talented, funny, generous man and his gorgeous family who will be so happy to spend more time together, which is what they deserve. He’s leaving #TheWalkingDead cast and crew with a lasting legacy of leadership and his cry to always fight for your character, for faith not fear in moving through the world and for decency and respect in your dealings with others will stay with the #TWDFamily forever. A truly remarkable #1. Thank you Mr Andy Lincoln. Love ya. ❤️ #TheWalkingDead #TWD #RickGrimesForever #AndyLincoln #AndrewLincoln

No better place to start #TheOnslaught than here. What a man. What a leader. What a speech! Thank you Andy, for the great advice, encouragement and love thru the years. I'm excited about what's to come in your next adventure, even if it's just a well-earned rest with your sweet family. Love. Hugs. Joy. ?❤ #SDCC #ComicCon @amcthewalkingdead #AndrewLincoln #RickGrimes #TWD My Outfit: @sofistafunktheskirtco ?
