Lauren Cohan and Jeffrey Dean Morgan Will return as Maggie and Negan in their own series, a new spin-off of The Walking Dead. Dead City will bring together the legendary characters for an adventure that will test everything they learned as survivors in the midst of a zombie apocalypse.Even though there are still a few months left for the premiere of the new show, AMC anticipates the project within the walker universe with new images of Dead City, which show us the protagonists and a horde of zombies ready to attack:
In the series, years have passed since we last saw Maggie and Negan, and now they must form a tenuous alliance to accomplish a dangerous mission. The two travel to the island of Manhattan, which, having been isolated since the start of the walker apocalypse, has developed its own unique threats.
Together, they’ll have to try to rescue Maggie’s son, Herschel (Logan Kim), who has been kidnaped by a dangerous criminal known as the Croat, played by Željko Ivanek. They all are joined by Gaius Charles, Jonathan Higginbotham, Mahina Napoleon, and Karina Ortiz.
The Future of The Walking Dead
Beyond Dead City, the franchise is preparing for the debut of several other spin-offs that will follow the adventures of some of the most popular characters from the original series.
Norman Reedus will return on his show as Daryl Dixon, who washes up on the coast of France and struggles to piece together how he got there and why. The series follows his journey through a broken but resilient France as he hopes to find his way back home. However, as he makes his way back, the connections he forms along the way complicate his ultimate plan.
Finally, after canceling the Rick-centric movie, Andrew Lincoln's character will return alongside Danai Gurira's Michonne in a miniseries that will follow their stories into a new chapter of their lives.
Meanwhile, Fear the Walking Dead, the franchise's first spin-off, will come to an end this year after seven seasons. The new episodes will premiere in May.
The Walking Dead: Dead City premieres on AMC on June 18.
