Walking Dead Season 10 Finale Trailer Reveals Maggie’s Return

AMC releases a trailer for the delayed Walking Dead season 10 finale that reveals among many things the return of Maggie (Lauren Cohan).

AMC releases a trailer for The Walking Dead season 10 finale that reveals among many things, the return of Lauren Cohan as Maggie Rhee (née Greene). Due to the worldwide outbreak of COVID-19, shutdowns throughout the industry have forced AMC to delay the airing of The Walking Dead's season 10 finale. Now planned to release later this year, this new trailer will have to hold fans until then.

The Walking Dead season 10's most recent episode, "The Tower", has left the survivors of the various communities - Alexandria, Hilltop, Kingdom, and Oceanside - in a precarious situation. Though they've managed to kill the Whisperers' leader, Alpha (thanks in large part to Negan of all people), her second in command, Beta, is now leading a massive herd against them. Currently, the survivors are holed up in a hospital, sheltering in its upper floors. With the herd approaching, it's going to be one of the survivors' toughest fights yet, but as teased in this Walking Dead season 10 finale trailer, help may be on the way.

Maggie exited the show in The Walking Dead season 9, leaving to join Georgie at her mysterious and advanced settlement. Since then, Hilltop had been communicating with Maggie via letters, but with the start of the Whisperer War and deaths of Hilltop's leaders, Jesus and Tara, they're in dire straits and need help. Maggie, it appears, is finally receiving their distress call and may be coming to the rescue in The Walking Dead's season 10 finale. Watch the trailer, below.

In addition to the tease of Maggie's return, this Walking Dead season 10 finale trailer tries to paint as positive a picture as it can for the survivors. Instead of focusing on the dangers at their door, it instead focuses on those in positions to possibly save them. According the trailer, this includes those just outside the hospital - Daryl, Judith, Carol, and Kelly - and well as those on their way to meet with Stephanie of the Commonwealth - Eugene, Yumiko, Ezekiel, and they're new acquaintance, Princess. There's also a shot of Virgil, seemingly now in a better state of mind, making his way through an abandoned Oceanside. Of course, this Walking Dead season 10 trailer isn't without some threats as it also shows Aaron and Alden coming face-to-face with some unknown masked man wielding two scythes. Just who he is, is a complete mystery.

In regards to Maggie's return, it's unclear just how much she'll feature in The Walking Dead season 10 finale. Judging by the letter she's reading, this could be taking place sometime before the present day, allowing Maggie to arrive with help in this very episode. Then again, it may also merely show her receiving the letter in the finale, a sign of just how long communication takes across such distances. We'll only know for sure once The Walking Dead returns with its season 10 finale, "A Certain Doom" sometime in the (hopefully near) future
