We expect Georgie to be a major figure in the future of “The Walking Dead,” especially now that Maggie has run off with her
(Spoilers ahead for the Nov. 18 episode of “The Walking Dead” on AMC)
Ever since she first popped up out of nowhere in Season 8, “The Walking Dead” fans have been speculating non-stop about what Georgie’s (Jayne Atkinson) role will be in the future. Even though she has not appeared again since, Georgie’s impact has been felt — especially when we discovered that Maggie (Lauren Cohan) has made her exit from the show by joining up with Georgie’s quest to bring civilization back to the world.
We still don’t actually know that much about Georgie. She first appeared, as you recall, shortly before the Saviors attacked the Hilltop last season, offering food and knowledge — a book detailing primitive technology like aqueducts and so forth — in exchange for music. Georgie claimed to be roaming around, sort of trying to rekindle civilization wherever she encountered a community worth fostering.

Georgie had with her a pair of sisters, twins, named Midge and Hilda, who appeared to sort of act as her muscle. Interestingly, on the rare occasion when we have gotten an update on Georgie, it was always mentioned that the twins dropped off a letter, with no indication that Georgie herself had actually been back.
Earlier this season, before the time jump, there was a notable scene between Maggie and Jesus in which they discussed a proposition from Georgie — she had been trying to get Maggie or the Hilltop to “join” her for something.
