‘The Walking Dead’ News: IMDb Mistake Reveals Glenn Is About to Come Back
It might be in the next episode or the episode after that, but Glenn Rhee on "The Walking Dead" is about to make his grand return. News of this follows a little goof up on actor Steven Yeun's IMDb page, which has since been taken down.
According to an article on The Huffington Post, the return of Glenn is imminent despite his apparent demise in Episode 3 of Season 6.
Here is the breakdown. IMDb is an Internet-based page that people can go to and find information about anyone in film or TV. The page lists all available information on the actor and that even includes what is coming up for him/her but has not been released.
Just after Episode 3 aired on AMC, HuffPost went to Yeun's IMDb page and found him listed in most of the Season 6 episodes, starring in an amount equal to that of Norman Reedus (Daryl Dixon) and two episodes shy of Andrew Lincoln (Rick Grimes). Yeun at that time totaled 81 episodes for the series.
But since then, Yeun's IMDb page has changed and only 70 episodes are credited to the actor.
One thing that fans do know is that producers for "TWD" do not like spoilers getting out at all. Their storylines are closely guarded secrets and when the apparent demise of Glenn in Episode 3 left fans with a cliffhanger, that means that they had to do everything in their power not to take away from that possible storyline. So the first thing they did was took his name out of the opening credits.
But they forgot to edit his IMDb page right away and the spoilers were right there for those who are able to do the simple math.
According to Movie Pilot, there was also a video leaked online that appeared to show Jeffrey Dean Morgan in character as Negan using his barb-wired baseball bat to bash the brains in of someone, which is what happens to Glenn in the comic books.
That video has since been removed from the Internet, but the damage was done. A description for the video said that although it was clearly Morgan in character filming the scene, viewers could not see who the character victim was.
