Another added: “I didn’t even know you were under the weather! Feel better buddy!”
Meanwhile a third commented: “Omg, what happened ?! I hope you get well soon !!”
Chandler left The Walking Dead in 2018 when Carl was killed off midway through season eight.

However, Chandler admitted back in August he’d very much be up for returning to the franchise, although it would be difficult to do.
Answering a fan’s question during an Instagram interview with Tommy DiDario, Chandler said of reprising the role of Carl: “Absolutely. It’s been a lot of fun.
“I don’t really see it happening in any current medium of the show, but maybe, hopefully, in something else,” he added.
