AMC's hit post-apocalyptic series "The Walking Dead," which won three out of its seven nominations in the 41st Saturn Awards, will see Rick Grimes at odds with Morgan in its sixth season. Andrew Lincoln, who took home the award for Best Actor in a Television Series, restated this during the event. 

"There will be tension between those two characters, definitely," the actor told Collider during the occasion.

Fans already got the idea of that with the first official poster for "The Walking Dead" season 6 showing the two almost clashing against each other.  

During the ceremony, executive producer Greg Nicotero also talked to Collider about their plans of taking a cue from George A. Romero's 1968 independent zombie horror classic "Night of the Living Dead," which the executive producer referred to as their "holy grail" in the show's freshman season. 

"We were striving to make something as meaningful as that material, and I think that six years in, not only do we continue to do it but we do it better," Nicotero told Collider. "It gets harder every year, but we don't back down," he continued, revealing their efforts to "keep the show fresh" and "original." 

Nicotero went on to say that the team is shunning away from feeding "the same thing over and over again" that is why "The Walking Dead" season 6 will start off "bold," which the showrunner said was an inevitable direction the show had to take considering its massive success. 

"We want our audience to think and they get to put together the puzzle that we are presenting to them, knowing that by the end of the episode that they will have arrived at the conclusion that we want them to arrive at," Nicotero explained. 

Indeed, the team behind the undead horde are pushing the envelope, with Lincoln confirming the writing "getting stronger and stronger" and the series' innate makings "to open up the world in a way we've never ever [fans] haven't experienced before."

"The Walking Dead" season 6 will haunt once more starting October.
