Is The Walking Dead Season 3 losing Sarah Wayne Callies?
There may be any number of reasonable explanations that do not involve the actress leaving/being killed off of the hit AMC zombie series. First off, no details were given for Sarah Wayne Callies' character in Category Six, so perhaps she just has a small role, and was given a short amount of time off from The Walking Dead to shoot this movie.
It is also possible that this shooting schedule falls during a hiatus period. We reported that production began on Season 3 in early May, and the cast will be present at San Diego Comic-Con this week (including Sarah Wayne Callies), which obviously means a break in the production. In Season 2, AMC split their 13-episode season into two parts, with the first seven episodes airing in October and November, and the last six airing in February and March. The network hasn't confirmed a split for the 16-episode Season 3 yet, although it is possible they are working on a staggered production schedule.
On the flip side, this isn't the first time that casting news has raised questions about an actor's status on the show. Back in January, we reported that Jon Bernthal, who played the volatile Shane, was in talks to star in Frank Darabont's new TNT pilot L.A. Noir. This raised several eyebrows and left many wondering whether or not Shane would make it to the end of The Walking Dead Season 2. As it turns out, he was killed off, with confirmation of his L.A. Noir role coming just one day after he was turned into a "walker" in Episode 2.12: Better Angels.
Of course, nothing has been confirmed yet, and we are still a long ways away from The Walking Dead Season 3 debuting in October. We'll have to wait and see what the fate of Sarah Wayne Callies' Lori truly is, so stay tuned.

@dan1 I don't care for spoilers when it comes to him. PLEASE, tell me he gets a slow, painful death eventually. He's the Six Feet Under's Federico of GoT.

I think I'm the minority when it comes to Lori. I think the show needs her character. If she were gone, where's the drama going to stimulate from? I don't want her dead just yet. Not sure why everyone's excited she might be leaving. :/

@dan1 But Lori never violated a whor* with a stag-headed scepter, Lol. I'm indifferent to all this. The character of Lori started to really grate on me.

@pjwolsker don't spoil things, you goof :P
@dan1 She is very annoying, but nearing Joffrey level? Harsh, lol.

I would stand up and cheer. I hate her character almost as much as I hate Joffrey in Game of Thrones.
