Actor Tom Payne talks about the second half of season eight of "The Walking Dead." He also discusses fan reaction to the shocking mid-season finale. Payne plays Paul "Jesus" Rovia, who joined the cast in season six. The actor defends the decision to kill off Carl, saying the actor who plays him is still just 18 years old, and has been doing this for half his life. Payne promises more action in the second half of season eight, saying the group has to come up with a new plan now that everything has fallen apart. The actor says it's bizarre to play a character named Jesus, and he turns around every time someone stubs their toe and exclaims. Payne explains he has a harder time blending in on the street, thanks to his signature hair.
