THE Walking Dead fans went wild over the latest post from the show’s official Twitter account.

The AMC zombie drama left fans wanting more earlier this year when it was forced to postpone the season 10 finale amid the industry-wide coronavirus lockdown.

• The most terrifying horrors on Netflix
• The best true crime series on Netflix

What’s more, spin-off show Fear the Walking Dead was also delayed, meaning fans had no new content to sink their teeth into.

As such, the team behind the series have been doing their best to keep fans updated on production from their social media accounts.

The latest whipped their followers into a frenzy as they seemed to hint that Rick Grimes actor Andrew Lincoln could be reunited with some of the currenty stars on screen.

The account shared a picture of Lincoln on set with Lydia actress Cassady McClincy and Kelly (Angel Theory).

“REALLY wishing we could have gotten scenes with Lydia, Kelly, and Rick,” the tweet began.

“Maybe some day #tbt [upset emoji].”

It didn’t take long for fans to cling onto the “some day” at the end of the tweet and inquire about what directors and writers had planned.

“So you saying Rick [is] returning after the movies? if so i would be hyped to see him return to the show if thats the case,” one hopeful fan wrote.

A second echoed: “Might we get Rick back to the show before it ends?”

Meanwhile a third chimed in: “How funny would it be if we got more scenes from Rick, Daryl & Connie we all know Rick be teasin the hell out of Daryl tho hehe [sic].”

There were plenty of other like-minded messages, but the official account opted not to respond to any of them.

The furore comes after the trailer for the season 10 finale hinted at a prominent character’s death.

The Walking Dead‘s season 10 finale will air as a special episode on Monday, October 5 on FOX in the UK and previous episodes are available to stream on NOW TV.

In the US, the season 10 finale will air on Sunday, October 4 at 9pm on AMC.

Fear the Walking Dead will return later this year on AMC in the US and on AMC UK in the UK.
