AMC's spin-off from the smash hit The Walking Dead premiered last week, introducing its first family of survivors on the show. It's too early to tell who will be sticking around in Fear the Walking Dead but the characters themselves have opinions on who will last.
Like many zombie shows, Fear the Walking Dead starts off with the characters failing to come to grips with what is happening. However, by the end of the show's premiere, it has established that the reality is slowly sinking in for Madison, Nick, Alicia and Travis. What everyone believed to be just the delusions of a drug addict is slowly proving itself to be real, signifying that the characters may soon be undergoing dramatic changes to help them cope.
The cast talked to The Hollywood Reporter, sharing what they believed are the valuable skills their characters have and if these will help in ensuring their survival for the rest of the show or at least the first season.
According to Franke Dillane, he thinks Nick's ability to get what he wants will come in most handy for surviving the zombie apocalypse. Some morality issues might crop up because of this skill set but Dillane explained that Nick's single-mindedness makes him focus on one thing and, in the show, that may be surviving.
