‘Walking Dead’ Season 5 Actor Norman Reedus ‘Gets Physically Offended By Bad Acting’ Of His Man Crush Andrew Lincoln

"Walking Dead" lead actor Andrew Lincoln has dropped a major spoiler about his co-actor Norman Reedus, and it's something that speaks volumes of their friendly relationship.

According to the 42-year-old actor Reedus is the one to show and tell him whenever he does bad acting on the set of their hit zombie apocalypse-themed series.

"You always know if you're doing a good scene, because Norman will make eye contact with you," Lincoln, who plays Rick Grimes on the show said Monday during "TimesTalks" TimesCenter in New York.

The British actor added that Reedus, who plays Daryl Dixon, usually shows him that he did some bad acting by not making eye contact with him.

"He gets physically offended by bad acting, and won't look at you!" he explained.

Of course, this just shows how their friendship has remained strong throughout the may years they have worked together on the show.

Lincoln even gushed about Reedus' "extraordinary spirit," adding, "He bleeds for this show - literally, every season he gets hurt. He's a fascinating man and he's become a dear friend to us."

According to The Star, Reedus has always maintained good working relationships with his costars, but he has grown closest to Lincoln.

"Andy's kind of my BFF on the set," Reedus once said. "I'm very proud to be Robin to his Batman."

Reedus wasn't even shy when he admitted to Comicbook.com in 2013 that if he were to get stuck in a real zombie apocalypse, he would prefer to have it with Lincoln because he has a crush on him.

Then, Lincoln retorted Reedus' love for him when he made an appearance at Walker Stalker Con in Atlanta that same year..

He wasn't afraid to admit that Reedus is his most favorite part in doing "The Walking Dead," even joking that he takes "half an hour to start working in the morning" because he fangirls at Reedus before they start working on their scenes, Wetpaint has learned.
