AMC brought The Walking Dead spinoff The Walking Dead: Dead City to the 2023 WonderCon and treated attendees to the first look at the new series. Following its debut at WonderCon, the network released a 15-second teaser trailer – with walkers falling from the sky and a more mature Hershel – online.
The teaser reveals someone’s grabbed Hershel and Negan’s the key to getting him back.
AMC also used the panel at WonderCon to announce the first Walking Dead spinoff will premiere on Sunday, June 18, 2023 at 10pm ET/PT. Subsequent episodes will arrive on Sundays at 9pm ET/PT.
The Walking Dead: Dead City stars Lauren Cohan as Maggie, Jeffrey Dean Morgan as Negan, and Gaius Charles as Armstrong. Eli Jorné is the showrunner and executive produces.
The Plot:
The Walking Dead: Dead City follows the popular Maggie (Cohan) and Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) characters traveling into a post-apocalyptic Manhattan, long ago cut off from the mainland. The crumbling city is filled with the dead and denizens who have made New York City their own world full of anarchy, danger, beauty, and terror.
