Danai Gurira will be departing "The Walking Dead" on Season 10


Fans of AMC's The Walking Dead best be prepared to say goodbye to another mainstay series regular, as The Hollywood Reporter has reported that Danai Gurira - who has played the badass sword wielding survivor Michonne - will be exiting the series come Season 10 of the critically acclaimed zombie drama series.

After debuting in Season 3 of the show and eventually becoming the love interest of Rick Grimes, Gurira has signed on to appear on a limited capacity in the show similar to her fellow co-star and Rick actor Andrew Lincoln - who recently left the series as a regular and will star in a trilogy of "Rick Grimes" movies for AMC. Vastly different from its comic book counterpart, The Walking Dead is now a show following the main thrust of the storyline of a group of survivors struggling to rebuild in a world dominated by the undead - yet now without Rick, Carl, and soon Michonne as well. Original character Daryl Dixon - played by Norman Reedus - serves as the new face of the ongoing series.

The Walking Dead resumes its ninth season this February 10th on AMC.
