The Stars of 'The Walking Dead' Grabbed Each Other's Butts and It Was Glorious
Who knew The Walking Dead’s sexy-grumble Rick Grimes and fan-favorite Daryl Dixon had a bromance for the ages? Now we know, thanks to a deliciously cheeky photo captured by Entertainment Weekly photographer Dan Winter for this week’s cover. Apparently, stars Norman Reedus, Andrew Lincoln, and Melissa McBride (Daryl, Rick, and Carol) were posing outside of the prison from Seasons 3 and 4 when — after a few minutes of uncontrollable giggling — it was discovered that Reedus was trying to hold Lincoln’s hand behind McBride’s back. Lincoln, who always maintains his American accent even on photo shoots, could not keep his composure, and was attempting to swat Reedus’s hand away. That’s when the idea for the photo above came about.
“I love this picture because it just happened organically,” says EW picture editor Michele Romero. How many walkers do we have to kill over here to switch places with McBride?

This season we’re in for unexpected rivalries, alliances, and “internal conflict” Reedus tells EW. If we’re lucky, there will also be more booty grabbing, too. And we wouldn’t be opposed to it if Glenn got in on the action as well.
Season 6 of The Walking Dead premieres Sunday, Oct. 11 at 9 p.m. on AMC.
