How was it for you reading the scripts for the second half of season six?
Sonequa Martin-Green:My mind was blown.
Kenric Green:Its like our own version of watching the show.
Sonequa, you joined the show when The Walking Dead was just becoming a phenomenon.
Kenric, by the time you joined it was already there.
Its like I tell people when you go on the show its only half acting.
Sashas lost her brother and Bob and that put her in a bad place.
Has that loss also difficult for you on and off the show?
SMG:We always say thats the worst part of the job.
Its the absolute worst part of the job.
We get close quickly and we say all the time were a family, but we mean that.
You guys really love each other and really love this job and are really a family?
So when someone goes, you dont know when you might actually see them again and its really sad.
You know we cry and we hug and then we cry!
[laughs]
Sashas had screen time with almost everyone, but what is your favourite pairing?
SMG:I really did love everything I did with Chad [L. Coleman, who played Tyreese].
I really loved our dynamic.
Id [also] love to have a conversation or two with Scott!
SMG:Yes, thats a good question.
The relationship is still blossoming between Sasha and Abraham.
What do you think their connection is?
It can go a billion different ways and Im excited for people to see where exactly it goes.
After what shes been through, how easily would she be able to open her heart?
SMG:I, as Sasha, Im ready to live again.
Is that what we see in the future then, that she opens up more?
So it makes me vulnerable for lots of things.
Who was your inspiration for Sasha and how strong she is?
SMG:I love women who fight.
Ive always been into action and combat and fighting, and not just physically.
People, no matter the circumstances, theyre overcoming them.
I was a little kid watching the TV thinking I wanna be just like that.
KG:Its wonderful.
Its really wonderful to be in something thats not focused on that, or politics.
Its just a world about humanity and survival.
Were all just people, theres no time for anything else.
SMG:Its like the zombie apocalypse has become the great equalizer.
Its like finally people see that we all have equal value, surviving together.
We could learn a thing or two.
Sonequa Martin-Green and Kenric Green, thank you very much!
