As one chapter of The Walking Dead Universe shuffles to a close with the impending final season of Fear the Walking Dead, another begins as AMC has officially announced that the Negan and Maggie spinoff series The Walking Dead: Dead City will premiere on June 18th.
Picking up years after the conclusion of the main show, the series features the return of Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Lauren Cohan as their characters are forced together on a journey that will take them to Manhattan. Check out the new teaser here…
Years have passed since we last saw Maggie and Negan and they must now form a tenuous alliance in order to accomplish a dangerous mission. Maggie and Negan journey to the island of Manhattan, which, having been isolated since the beginning of the walker apocalypse, has developed its own unique threats.
While in the city, Maggie and Negan encounter native New Yorkers, evade a marshal with a troubled past, and hunt down a notorious killer. But as the pair moves deeper into the gritty depths of the walker-infested city, it becomes apparent that the traumas of their tumultuous past may prove just as great a threat as the dangers of the present.
The Walking Dead: Dead City sees the return of Lauren Cohan’s Maggie and Jeffrey Dean Morgan’s Negan who star alongside The Walking Dead franchise newcomers Gaius Charles (Friday Night Lights) as Perlie Armstrong, Karina Ortiz (Orange is the New Black) as Amaia, Zeljko Ivanek (True Blood) as The Croat, Mahina Napoleon (NCIS) as Ginny and Jonathan Higginbotham (The Blacklist) as Tommaso.
The Walking Dead: Dead City will premiere on June 18th.
