New 'Walking Dead' Season 8 Photo: Rick & Maggie Share a Leader Look
Maggie Greene Rhee is a pregnant widow leading a community through war in "The Walking Dead" Season 8, and you'd have to be as stupid as Gregory to bet against her.
The "Walking Dead" Season 8 trailer and other details will be coming out this Friday, July 21 at San Diego Comic-Con, but today Entertainment Weekly teased out another exclusive photo, this time of Maggie (Lauren Cohan) and Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln).
It looks like they are having a pep talk moment, with both leaders -- he of Alexandria, she of Hilltop (sit down, Gregory) -- sharing a supportive look.

Is she holding down the fort at Hilltop while Rick goes off to confront Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) and the Saviors? We'll find out this October.
EW previously posted a photo of Daryl (Norman Reedus) and Carol (Melissa McBride) reuniting after being apart for most of Season 7. They both look ready to fight, and that's what's ahead for everyone in Season 8.
"We have basically set the stage for All Out War," showrunner Scott M. Gimple told EW. "Negan's said it, everybody has seen they're in it. It will play out quickly and propulsively and attentively and will shift around the focus quite a bit between the different places and battlegrounds and characters and communities."
"The Walking Dead" Season 8 premieres in October on AMC, and the exact date will probably be announced Friday afternoon during Comic-Con.
