In a recent interview, Melissa McBride shared that while returning to play Carol may seem complicated, it was actually surprisingly easy. “It was a little weird, but at the same time it wasn’t weird because both characters are very adaptable.

So that part was easy,” McBride said, clarifying that while the essence of Carol is still there, we will see a different version of the character.
