This gave birth to the Walking Dead game series, which became a hit of its time. And while fans cherished the game as much as they did the series, they became sad about its departure. 

Throughout time, the series averaged over 5-15 million viewership just in the US, as fans adored the franchise. But just like all, they too were sad about the final goodbye. So, amidst the chaos, we have some heartfelt moments from the cast that might make up your day.

In 2012, Norman, Steven, and Danai attended the Video Game Awards. There, the trio caught themselves in an off-topic interview, revealing secrets from the sets of the series. Apparently, the star cast spent a lot of time playing top games like Madden, Call Of Duty, and Halo. 

While their answers came off as a shock, it was quite ironic that the cast did not mention their own ‘series’ video game. Nevertheless, fans were happy to learn about the lives of their favorites off-screen, feeling lucky they played similar games.

When the interviewer asked Steven about how he hoped on to the show, he stunned fans with his answer. Apparently, Steven was in search of a job when he landed this opportunity. He then quickly accepted the deal, spending most of his time working on the set for the iconic series. On the other hand, the producers cast Norman after he worked on a few pilot episodes and performed multiple scripts. 

Lastly, Danai had to work her way through episodes as she moved to Georgia after a break from her writing. At the time, her play was in troubled waters, leading her to look for better opportunities. So, she just wagoned to the Walking Dead set and gave the audition. And Voila! she was on board.
