the Walking Dead<\/em><\/span>‘s flagship series may be coming to a close with its eleventh season, but there’s plenty more to devour. At Friday’s San Diego Comic-Con panel showcasing members of the cast and crew, surprise guests Andrew Lincoln and Danai Gurira showed up to confirm a long-rumored, highly anticipated spin-off: a The Walking Dead<\/em> limited series for Rick and Michonne, to air on AMC in 2023.<\/p>\n

Considering the drama’s leading man Rick Grimes never received the bloody and\/or heroic death typical of characters on this long-running series, and Michonne’s departure<\/span> last season served to, well, go make sure he’s alive, fans have long speculated their stories aren’t finished. A six-episode limited series, featuring Lincoln and Gurira as both stars and executive producers, will now replace the three Rick-centered original films that producers had previously announced were in the works. While they and the other panelists in Hall H didn’t reveal details, a synopsis has been unveiled via AMC:<\/p>\n

\n

This series presents an epic love story of two characters changed by a changed world. Kept apart by distance. By an unstoppable power. By the ghosts of who they were. Rick and Michonne are thrown into another world, built on a war against the dead… And ultimately, a war against the living. Can they find each other and who they were in a place and situation unlike any they’ve ever known before? Are they enemies? lovers? Victims? Victors? Without each other, are they even alive\u2014or will they find that they, too, are the Walking Dead?<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Comic-Con attendees were treated to two back-to-back The Walking Dead<\/em> panels, both moderated by superfan and Talking Dead<\/em> host Chris Hardwick. Writer-producers Scott Gimple and Channing Powell were on hand to preview Tales Of The Walking Dead<\/em>, the anthologized series premiering August 14 that features one-off stories set within the walker apocalypse (with the sick tagline \u201c6 Different Stories, 1 Dead World\u201d) starring Terry Crews, Danny Ramirez, Parker Posey, and more. Although not directly impacting the Walking Dead<\/em>‘s overall timeline, tales<\/em> will include a prequel tale for Alpha, as actor Samantha Morton confirmed, despite the fan-favorite villain now going by the name Dee. \u201cDee is who Alpha was before she becomes Alpha,\u201d teased Morton. \u201cBut she’s also always Alpha, she’s always there\u2014we are who we are.\u201d <\/p>\n
