Chandler Riggs

For me Chandler Riggs will always be Carl Grimes, and that is no small thing. Carrying a major role on The Walking Dead from age ten through eighteen meant growing up on camera while playing a child hardening into a survivor, a demanding arc that earned him three Saturn Awards. Audiences watched him mature almost as if he were their own kid, which is a strange and intimate kind of fame. Being raised by a long-running franchise brings glory and a heavy shadow alike. Now free of that role, I am genuinely curious which version of himself he chooses to show us.
