‘The Walking Dead’ Breakout Cooper Andrews Talks Creating Scene Stealer Jerry and How He Found Out About the Negan Deaths

Most important: There is more Jerry to come on this season of The Walking Dead. Actor Cooper Andrews confirmed that Jerry’s cobbler delivery to Carol in Sunday’s “New Best Friends” will definitely not be the last we see of the character who, in just three episodes and less than a dozen lines of dialogue so far, has become an instant fan favorite. As most fans would likely cite as a reason for all the love, it’s Andrews’s smile that also sparked TWD showrunner Scott Gimple and director/EP Greg Nicotero to see the potential of Jerry as King Ezekiel’s super enthusiastic and friendly Kingdom right-hand man.
