Maggie left with a bitter taste in her mouth after Rick Grimes failed to kill Negan and Michonne refused to let Maggie take him down herself.

Maggie had wanted revenge after Negan killed her husband Glenn, smashing his head in with his barbed wire-covered baseball bat, Lucille.

Having witnessed her husband's brutal death, and not being able to avenge it, Maggie left to live with another community of survivors, but a trailer for the delayed season 10 finale revealed she would be back.

As for her unfinished business with Negan - played by Jeffrey Dean Morgan - Lauren told AMC in a recent interview: "Just like in life, it might be one of those things she doesn’t know until she faces it.

"She definitely decided not to kill him on that day when Michonne discouraged her. She did go that way.

“Forgiveness is liberating. I suppose we’ll get to see to what degree she has decided to liberate herself.”

After Lauren left the show it went through a six year time jump following the bridge explosion which the Alexandrians believe killed Rick (Andrew Lincoln).

During that time, Maggie has also changed from how fans remember her, with Lauren revealing: "There are definitely things she will have picked up on the road and there’s also the relationship with her son and how growing with him has affected her.

“Or even what has been happening, I’m in a liberated position to actually not know enough to give spoilers at this point!

“It’s a nice surprise to come back to these changes, understand what motivates her return, what happened while she was out there and who’s still going to be here when she returns.

"We have a lot to unpack."

The Walking Dead season 10 finale will return to AMC and Fox UK later this year.
