Cameras are rolling, and the undead are on the prowl in a featurette for Season 2 ofThe Walking Dead: Dead City.One of the more recent spin-offsto come fromThe Walking Deaduniverse celebrated its first season last summer with viewership numbers proving that audiences were eager for more stories to come from the incredibly unlikely duo ofJeffrey Dean Morgan’s Negan andLauren Cohan’s Maggie. A clapperboard ushers in the newest bit of promotional material for the post-apocalyptic series’ second season, with plenty of fun moments shared by the cast to follow. The sneak peek gives us a look at the stunt team and the explosive action that awaits us in the next batch of episodes, and along with Cohan and Morgan, we get some quick looks at returning starsLisa Emery,Gaius Charles, and — of course — plenty of Walkers.
This is the second piece of behind-the-scenes footage that we’ve seen fromDead Cityin recent days as, earlier this month, we caught anin-between-takes glimpse of Morgan, fully decked out in his all-black outfit, smoking a cigarette, and carrying his character’s beloved baseball bat, Lucille. But, today’s featurette is the first official look at the making of Season 2 since the showearned its renewal back in Julyahead of the Season 1 finale. From what we can tell, it will be another brutal batch of episodes as Maggie, having completed her mission of rescuing her son, Hershel (Logan Kim), will now need to deal with the fallout of Negan being passed over to the watchful eye of The Dama (Emery).
We can also presume thatMahina Napoleon(NCIS: Hawai’i) will be back to reprise the role of Ginny, withŽeljko Ivanek(Argo) expected to return as The Croat.Sons of Anarchystar,Kim Coates, will also join the Season 2 castand can be seen in a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moment in the featurette.
After an amazing 11-season run on AMC,The Walking Deadfinally took its final stroll in November 2022. Shortly after, it was announced that the production’s first spin-off,Fear the Walking Deadwould be going black after eight seasons, with the final episode dropping almost a year to the day after the title that started it all. But, the dedicated fandom still hasn’t needed to fully mourn the passing of the franchise as both the network and creatives spotted space forother potential spin-offs. First, it wasThe Walking Dead: Dead City, which was shortly followed byNorman Reedus’ fresh chapter inThe Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon. Finally, there wasThe Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live, which continued the show’smost notorious couple, Rick (Andrew Lincoln) and Michonne Grimes (Danai Gurira) on a mission to reunite following the events ofThe Walking Dead’s series finale.
