‘The Walking Dead’ season 5 spoilers: Andrew Lincoln, cast may have new ally

It’s obvious at the moment that the main cast of “The Walking Dead” are not in the midst of a good time at Terminus. They are trapped, have no resources at their disposal, and that train car looks like it is the sort of thing that could get hot very quickly.

So how is it even possible that you can make more friends in this sort of super-unusual position? Maybe there are some other people who show up in the car, or who knows? Maybe the survivors get a little bit of yard time. Either way, one of the characters that we are going to meet moving forward as a potential ally to Andrew Lincoln and company goes by the name of Burton.

According to E! News, Burton is a young guy at only 17 years old, but like many others in the zombie apocalypse, he’s gone through quite a bit already. He has lost one of his legs, but doesn’t really seem to be down about it. As a matter of fact, he’ll be one of the most positive people in the entire show when you get a chance to finally meet him. He’s mostly energetic, and we wonder if, thanks to his age, he could be a good friend to Carl.

Still, we wonder whether or not this bit of casting news will be enough for some looking for larger answers. The status of Beth (Emily Kenny) is at the moment uncertain, just as we are also looking forward to seeing where Tyreese and Carol fit into all this. At the moment, they may have the biggest odds of anyone to be heroes, and get them through the Terminus nightmare.
