The Walking Dead Spin-Off Shows: Everything We Know So Far

The Walking Dead Spin-off shows are coming and we can’t wait to see them. So, here’s everything we know about these upcoming shows so far. The Walking Dead comes to an end this winter AMC after 11 seasons in which it became one of the most viewed and viewed series in television history.

The show starred Andrew Lincoln in the title role of Rick Grimes. The series ended up exceeding all expectations. I highly doubt AMC ever thought it would be as successful as it ended up being. The series is based on a comic book series of the same name created by Robert Kirkman.


However, even though the main Walking Dead show is coming to an end, the story won’t stop there. We have learned that there are plans to expand the show’s universe with new spin-off shows like The Walking Dead: The World Beyond Y tales of the living dead. We’re getting not one, not two, but three spin-offs with the original cast. This is all we know so far about these upcoming The Walking Dead derivative shows.

Daryl Dixon (played by Norman Reedus) has become the heart of fans around the world. The spin-off series from it, which was initially supposed to include Carol (due to family commitments, she left the show), will take place in France. He will be dealing with ‘intelligent zombies’, and the actor said that, for most of it, he will be “just me”.

Announced before the fate of any of the characters was shown in the last series, this pits two enemies against each other. Maggie, played by Lauren Cohan, and Negan, played by Jeffery Dean Morgan, will meet up in New York City. We’ve been promised that his ending to the main series will set the bar very high, so the stakes will be high when the series begins. It’s full of action, conflict, ziplines, and wacky walkers, and the spinoff series is already underway filming scenes.

Not too long ago it was revealed that Rick and Michonne Living Dead spin-off show was happening! The series was initially planned as a series of three films. It has now been changed to a series, and is scheduled for a 2023 release. The series will focus on Rick Grimes and Michonne, played by Danai Gurira.

There was a surprise announcement that came at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con in which Andrew Lincoln and Danai Guirira revealed that the Rick and Michonne series was happening. They added that we are going to get more than six episodes, we will see the final chapter and the story of Rick Grimes and Michonne.

Here’s the synopsis for the Rick and Michonne spinoff Living Dead Serie:

This series presents an epic love story of two characters changed by a changed world. Separated by distance. For 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 know who they were in a place and situation unlike any they have ever known before? They are enemies? Lovers? victims? Winners? Without the other, are they alive, or will they discover that they, too, are The Walking Dead?

Scott Gimple, who wrote the planned script Living Dead trilogy of films with franchise creator Robert Kirkman, will serve as showrunner for the series. Lincoln and Gurira will also serve as executive producers for the series.

“Rick and Michonne are two of my favorite people, and Danai and Andy are two of my favorite people. Working with all of them continues to be a dream come true,” said Gimple. “The three of us, along with a terrific all-star team from TWD and incredible new voices, are creating an epic of mad love that is worth the long, long wait.”

Lincoln then added: “This has been the most extraordinary journey playing Rick Grimes for the better part of a decade. The friendships I’ve made along the way are deep and lasting, so it’s only fitting that I finally get to complete the story with Danai and Scott and the rest of the TWD family. I am so excited to return to the screen as Rick, reunite with Danai as Michonne, and bring fans an epic love story to add to the Walking Dead universe.”

Gurira had this to say about this upcoming spinoff show:

Michonne and this TWD family have meant the world to me, and continuing the journey of these beloved characters, along with Scott and Andy, both creatively and on camera, and giving The Walking Dead fans something truly special is just glorious. I can’t wait to pick up the katana again.
