The return of the second half of "The Walking Dead" Season 7 is getting very near, thus fans are now excited how the future of everyone will unfold. In spite of the tragic beginning, the midseason finale ended with a positive note that gives hope to Rick (Andrew Lincoln) and the rest of the group.

In "The Walking Dead" Season 7, fans will see Rick, Michonne (Danai Gurira) Maggie (Lauren Cohan) and Daryl (Norman Reedus) once again reunited at the Hilltop. This, too, will be the time that the show's protagonist will stand again on his ground and take his vengeance to Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan).

According to AMC, "The Walking Dead" Season 7 will be all about Rick and his group's preparation for the war. They will be all seen gathering supplies, looting and preparing weapons to face the evilest villain the show ever had. However, taking down Negan will need the involvement of the many, not only the people of Alexandria, so the group will build an alliance with other communities, New York Post reported.

As Rick is about to take his revenge to Negan in the continuation of "The Walking Dead" Season 7, the television series' finale is said to give him his moment. At the 2017 Walker Stalker Cruise panel, Jeffrey Dean Morgan revealed that the show's last episode will once again make the character of Andrew Lincoln shine.

"I'm glad that Rick can have a moment. I think this has been a tough season," the "Supernatural" actor said, per Comic Book. "Maybe Negan was sort of happy. I think Negan will be amused by him having a moment." As Rick will have the time of his life in "The Walking Dead" Season 7, this might imply that he has the chance to put Negan down.

Norman Reedus, too, has his comment about Rick's moment in "The Walking Dead" Season 7. The "Ride with Norman Reedus" star revealed that "things can always turn around" for Andrew Lincoln and Jeffrey Dean Morgan's characters as tough guys didn't really mean to be tough at times. The remaining eight episodes of the horror drama will return on Feb. 12 on AMC.
