Bernthal reveals Walking Dead twist

Jon Bernthal has aired some shocking news about the future of his character on The Walking Dead.

Warning: Spoiler Alert

The actor played Shane in the first two seasons of AMC's zombie drama, but his character was killed off during a dispute with Rick (Andrew Lincoln).

Speaking to the Los Angeles Times Bernthal said: "I fell in love with this character, and I think it's a scary thing to do because so many people feel like he's a dangerous, vicious guy, but my heart really went out for this guy."

He added: "If you're a casualty of that, and that casualty serves the story, then so be it. I'm totally down for that. I knew from the jump he was not necessarily going to last for too long."

Bernthal further explained that he was eager to expand his character away from the "one-note villian" portrayed in the comics saying: "I never wanted this guy to be that. I thought one of the real keys to this character, especially in this season, was his loneliness and his solitude.

"It's the kind of loneliness when you're right there with the people you love, but you can't be with them the way you want to. I think that makes for this cutting loneliness that makes a person capable of being quite dangerous."
