‘The Walking Dead’ Braces for All-Out War in Season 7 Finale Trailer
One year after The Walking Dead Season 6 built toward Negan’s arrival, the leather-clad villain is once again ready to face off with Rick; this time with armies on both sides. So reveals the official trailer for Season 7 finale “The First Day of the Rest of Your Life,” along with a new clip.

[Season 6’s finale] was the noose tightening and things getting darker and darker. This season’s finale has darkness and light, real horrific moments, betrayal, and real moments of beauty, redemption, love and friendship. It’s sort of the panoply of human and Walking Dead experience.
There’s still whatever Hilltop shenanigans Season 7 has in mind for Gregory and Maggie, but will next week’s finale end so unsatisfyingly as last year’s? Stay tuned for the latest.
