Remember when The Walking Dead‘s executive producer Frank Darabont abruptly left the production (to the dismay of the cast, crew, and fans)?

Deadline now reports that he may not be completely finished with the show afterall.

They report:

According to inside sources, Darabont will retain his executive producer title, but just what that will mean in terms of his creative input remains uncertain. Negotiations are ongoing, and it’s “in the hands of the lawyers” representing Darabont and AMC, the source said.

Good news for fans who were worried after seeing his great job on the premiere season. Even better news is that those who have seen the season 2 premiere are very impressed.
