The Real Reason Glenn Was Killed: Behind-the-Scenes Decisions That Shocked Fans
2025/04/08 Report

As a die-hard fan of The Walking Dead, I’m sure I’m not the only one who was completely blindsided by the tragic death of Glenn Rhee. His brutal exit in Season 7 left many of us in a state of disbelief—screaming at the TV, maybe even shedding a tear or two (okay, maybe more than a few). But beyond the heart-wrenching scene, there’s an even bigger question that fans have been speculating about: why did they kill Glenn? Was it just for the shock value, or was there something deeper behind the decision?

The "Real" Reason for Glenn’s Death

When it comes to a beloved character like Glenn, fans are quick to jump to conclusions. Some believed his departure had to do with actor Steven Yeun’s contract negotiations. Others thought it was just a creative decision to keep the show unpredictable. While both of these theories hold some merit, there’s a much more complex reason behind it all—one that blends personal choice, long-term story arcs, and a push for fresh creative direction.

Showrunner Scott Gimple and the writing team knew that in order to keep the show evolving, they needed to push the boundaries of what fans expected. Glenn was one of the original characters, and his death signaled that no one was safe—not even the ones we’ve been following since Season 1.
