The seventh season of "The Walking Dead" will be beginning with a major death reveal from April's finale. However, cast member sightings have shed some spoilers even before the upcoming premiere. Unfortunately, only a few names were crossed from the list.

The Spoiling Dead Fans have taken the pain of confirming if the beloved characters of the season 6 will be returning for season 7. Presently, production is on a closed set for episode 5, but according to insiders, it is not hard to know who is not dead.

Of importance to the Negan situation are multiple reports citing that Carl's Chandler Riggs, Maggie's Lauren Cohan and Sasha's Sonequa Martin-Green have been seen near the studio and around the walled Hilltop set, mentioned Design & Trend.

The Hollywood Reporter's sources claimed that 11 different death scenes have been shot so as not to spark any suspicions. However, reports from The Spoiling Dead Fans disagree with the claim since filming 11 scenes for the sake of keeping a secret would be tedious and time-consuming.

In addition, the statement from the producer Greg Nicotero mentions that the upcoming season will be quite different from the rest.

"The next season is a very different 'Walking Dead' from the one we are accustomed to," he said. "I think that people will enjoy that the show continues to change direction and doesn't just deliver the same thing over and over again. It's the logical place where our show should go. We close one chapter and open a whole new chapter."

Nicotero has also hinted at a possible deviation from the source material, but they will stay true to the theme and offer some "iconic" moments to the viewers.

"The Walking Dead" season 7 will premiere in October 2016.
