Reading time: 1 minute
AMC formally announced today the highly popular television series Walking Dead is set too unveil a spinoff series. The new show is locked for sometime in 2015 and is executive produced by Robert Kirkman, Gale Ann Hurd, and David Alpert. AMC president Charlie Collier had the following to say on the new project.
Building on the success of the most popular show on television for adults 18-49 is literally a no-brainer, We look forward to working with Robert, Gale and Dave again as we develop an entirely new story and cast of characters. It’s a big world and we can’t wait to give fans another unforgettable view of the zombie apocalypse.
Writer of the Walking Dead comic book, Robert Kirkman shared the following.
After 10 years of writing the comic book series and being so close to the debut of our fourth, and in my opinion, best season of the TV series, I couldn't be more thrilled about getting the chance to create a new corner of The Walking Dead universe. The opportunity to make a show that isn't tethered by the events of the comic book, and is truly a blank page, has set my creativity racing.
This news should be very exciting to many because, of some of the fatigue critics and fans are having with the characters. Keep your eyes peeled for the project in 2015.
