THE DEAD STILL WALK
Posted: 080619

A Bunch of Bytes of News on the Walking Dead on Film and TV

News from all three (yes, I said three) Walking Dead TV shows and a movie: the third Dead show will have a first episode directed by Kong: Skull Island’s Jordan Vogt-Roberts. The show will center around two young female protagonists and focus on the first generation to grown up during what they think is the end of the world. The show has no name as of yet but has been given a ten-episode order and will air Spring 2020. Fear the Walking Dead has been renewed for a sixth season and will add Colby Minifie, Peter Jacobson, and Colby Hollman to the cast. The second half of the fifth season is running right now. And the main show will return for its tenth season on October 6th. The cast will grow with the addition of Thora Birch as a Whisperer named Gamma and Kevin Carol as Virgil but Danai Gurira will leave after the season. She will appear in a handful of episodes. And finally those three Walking Dead films starring Andrew Lincoln will run in movie theaters and not on TV. Universal will pick up the cost for the films. In other Dead news David Madden, president of programming at AMC, told reporters at the Television Critics Association press tour that the show could run for the next ten years. The Walking Dead happens to be the second biggest show on TV and ratings are steady enough to suggest a longer life than we thought.
