Lauren Cohan, The Walking Dead: Dead City Peter Kramer/AMC The Walking Dead: Dead City castĬohan and Morgan will be joined by a new cast featuring Emmy winner Željko Ivanek, Jonathan Higginbotham, Mahina Napoleon, and Karina Ortiz. "You'll get to know these characters and their history very quickly," he said. While Morgan and Cohan agreed that it might help to have watched every season of The Walking Dead before heading into Dead City, Jorné promised that you can also come in as a brand new TWD fan. The show catches up with Maggie and Negan "a few years on" from where we saw them last, and Cohan says the show gets to "explore these notions of forgiveness and getting on with your life and facing your own demons." It felt like a really different excursion." "We have something we have to do, but there's nothing too welcoming about it, and you feel that in the show. There are walkers falling from the sky, and things are very much not pleasant. Maggie and Negan are out of the woods after many, many years, and they're about to find out just how claustrophobic a city like New York can be. the tone of the story is a little different, the visuals are different." "There aren't a ton of other characters, so we get to tell their stories deeply," Gimple said. Gimple explained that while The Walking Dead was an ensemble show, "a cast of thousands," Dead City will be very focused on Maggie, Negan, and just a few new friends/foes.

Gimple revealed during the TV Critics Association winter press tour that where The Walking Dead started with "a fusion of classic stuff like John Ford and Romero," Dead City is more John Carpenter ( Escape INTO New York, perhaps?), and they're really leaning into the urban setting. Manhattan was long ago cut off from the mainland, and the city is crumbling.

This is not the Walking Dead we know, even if there are a few familiar faces.ĭead City will show us how the zombie apocalypse affected New York, which is apparently very different from how it hit more Southern, rural areas in Georgia and Virginia. In The Walking Dead: Dead City, Maggie is on the hunt for her missing son, and she's forced to work with the infamous bat-wielding, husband-killing Negan to track down Hershel on the mean streets of post-apocalyptic New York City. Sometimes you just have to bite the bullet and team up with your greatest enemy to save your son, at least in the Walking Dead universe.
