The Walking Dead - Steven Yeun On Glenn's Romance

The Walking Dead star Steven Yeun has admitted that he is excited about his character's new romance.

In the zombie drama's second season, Glenn (Yeun) will develop feelings for new character Maggie, played by Chuck actress Lauren Cohan.

"Lauren is really cool," Yeun told reporters at the 2011 San Diego Comic-Con. "We've shot some stuff together so far [and] it's great."

The actor also claimed that the introduction of Maggie will have a strong impact on Glenn's outlook following the zombie apocalypse.

"Playing Glenn before, he lived to serve," said Yeun. "He lived to have a role and to leave a mark on the world, even if he dies a martyr.

"I love the idea that someone who didn't really have anything to live for, has so much more to live for [now]."

Lauren Cohan previously described Maggie as a "steely... leader" who views Glenn as "the cutest" of the show's characters.
