They skipped most of the will they/won’t they and went straight to “they did!” The Walking Dead’s newest supercouple, long-time pals Rick and Michonne, were on many a fan’s shipper wish list — #Richonne, people! — but there was little concrete evidence that it was actually going to happen, and happen now. Seriously, in the comments below, tell us the exact moment in that final scene when you said to yourself, “They are really going there!”
In the meantime, Yahoo TV talked to Michonne herself, Danai Gurira, for her take on the new duo, including when she first started shippin’ Rick and Michonne, how she and co-star Andy Lincoln approached the sweet and sexy hook-up, and what she thinks led to this most momentous of TWD occasions.
This is an episode that needed to be watched with a big group of TWD fans, just to see what their reactions were.
I know! I’ve actually requested a watch-cam on a couple people to see what happens.
There has always been a special relationship between Michonne and the Grimes men, going back to “Clear” in Season 3, when they took the road trip and ran into Morgan, and in Season 4’s “After,” when Michonne reunites with Carl and Rick after The Governor’s attack on the prison. And then in “No Way Out,” Rick and Michonne worked together to save Carl. Still, this is a whole new situation. What did you think when you found out Michonne and Rick were going to become a couple?
I thought it made sense, honestly. I’ve also kind of felt that same thing, but I didn’t share it publicly at all. But I did feel that it made sense for those two to ultimately have this type of connection. It did seem like they had an intimacy that was, you know, really rich and organic and really kind of easy. For Michonne, he was just kind of the man she met who really was her match, who really was like a man she can really respect, you know?
