The Walking Dead is now on its eleventh and final season, which is set to return this coming February to finish off the second half of episodes. Norman Reedus, who plays main character and survivor Daryl Dixon in the series, has shared a little behind-the-scenes photo of what could have gone down in the series had things turned out differently - he would have gotten a prosthetic arm because he punched Negan and that would have been due to Rick Grimes being forced to cut it off by the leader of the Saviours.

The Walking Dead has been many things since it premiered in 2010 and adapted the comic book series of the same name (which recently concluded) written by Robert Kirkman and drawn by Tony Moore and Charlie Adlard. Initially telling the story of a Sheriff's Deputy named Rick Grimes who searches for his family and eventually comes to lead a group of survivors amidst a zombie apocalypse, nine seasons have seen characters come and go as well as new locations and adversities explored beyond that of the undead.
At this year's San Diego Comic-Con, the cast and crew of AMC's The Walking Dead returned with some more news for their two shows "The Walking Dead" and spin-off "Fear The Walking Dead", as well as updates on the "Rick Grimes" focuses movies and a new untitled Spin-Off show. Last year's Season 9 also saw the departure of series lead Andrew Lincoln, who plays Rick Grimes and will eventually return in a trilogy of films set for release in the near future - which was teased with a trailer.

While that was just a brief teaser, fans got an extra large one for Season 10 of The Walking Dead, which promises to continue The Whisperers arc as well as bring in more Negan played by Jeffrey Dean Morgan. This will also mark the final season of Michonne actress Danai Gurira, who has officially confirmed that she is leaving the show (report byEntertainment Weekly)

And then there's the news of the untitled Walking Dead spin-off, which will be the third show to be among the AMC line-up and will be overseen and directed by Kong: Skull Island and upcoming Metal Gear movie director Jordan Vogt-Roberts. The Hollywood Reporter has the details, including the cast.
The Walking Dead Season 10 premieres on October 6 on AMC.
It's the end of an era for fans of "The Walking Dead", as Andrew Lincoln ended his tenure in the series as series' lead character Rick Grimes with this past Sunday's episode "What Comes After" - which also marked the last episode of Lauren Cohan/ Maggie Greene and Pollyanna McIntosh/ Anne for this season. It was both bittersweet and sad to see "Officer Friendly" exit the series - but Lincoln himself announced that he was going to focus more on family life and decided to depart the series that helped make him a household name on a high note.
However if you watched the episode, you'd realize that wouldn't be the true last appearance of Lincoln as Grimes. Perhaps in a move that will be easier than handling a TV Series schedule, a trilogy of "Rick Grimes" films have been announced by AMC according to a report by Deadline, signifying "The End of the Beginning" according to Lincoln himself in the "Talking Dead" episode after his final TV Series appearance. What happens next is anyone's guess... But it's clear now we haven't seen the last of Rick.
The Walking Dead currently airs its ninth season on AMC.
Nothing lasts forever indeed, and during the San Diego Comic-Con panel for AMC's "The Walking Dead", series main cast member and Rick Grimes actor Andrew Lincoln confirmed that the upcoming ninth season would be his last playing the former Sheriff's Deputy turned zombie apocalypse survivor and leader to a new generation of humanity rebuilding from the ashes. In the TV Series, Grimes is fulfilling the wishes of his late son Carl, who was killed off last season due to the departure of actor Chandler Riggs from the show.
Now time-skipping to a point after the events of "All-Out War" - the communities of Alexandria, The Sanctuary, The Kingdom, and The Hilltop struggle to co-exist and survive under the leadership of Rick and his allies - but it's easier said than done as the SDCC' 18 trailer shows that there are inner conflicts and demons that still need to be confronted by the survivors, as well as a new threat besides the living dead.
The Walking Dead Season 9 Trailer (Comic-Con 2018)
The Walking Dead Season 9 begins this October 7 on AMC.
Ahead of its much anticipated San Diego Comic Con panel discussion and the first bits of information for the upcoming new season, AMC has released the first key art promotional poster for "The Walking Dead" - which returns for its 9th Season on October. The beginning of "A New World" following the events of "All Out War", Rick Grimes, his allies, and the unified communities are rebuilding in the wake of their victory against Negan and The Saviours. However, there is new challenges to face as well as unpredictable scenarios to encounter as the survivors continue to live out their lives in a world filled with the living dead.
Also, AMC has released the poster promoting the second half of "Fear The Walking Dead" - which has Morgan Jones along with the cast of the spin-off series all decked out for their return this August. For more details, visit the official Walking Dead Facebook page.
Looks like The Walking Dead fans have something big to look forward to if a report from a Entertainment Weekly is to be believed, as series veteran and the long deceased Shane Walsh actor Jon Bernthal is set to reprise his iconic role sometime in Season 9 - reuniting with his best friend Rick Grimes (played by Andrew Lincoln) and the other remaining survivors who knew him that are still around in the show.
While Shane died in Season 2, that didn’t stop Bernthal from reprising the role as a hallucination that Rick sees (and shoots) during Season 3. With Andrew Lincoln looking to exit the show after Season 9, this will be the perfect reunion and swan song between the two pals who started as the first characters to be seen together when the hit AMC zombie show started back in 2010. For more information, read the source post at Superherohype.
The Walking Dead returns to AMC with Season 9 this October.
It looks like The Walking Dead will bid farewell to its main honcho and lead character in some way or form soon, as The Hollywood Reporter reports that Andrew Lincoln - who plays former Sheriff's Deputy and zombie apocalypse survivor Rick Grimes in the series, is exiting the popular AMC series come the end of the show's ninth season. According to the report, Lincoln is going to be phased out and will be ending his run in the show similar to co-star Lauren Cohan, who plays Maggie Greene and will only be appearing in six episodes of the next season. As a trade off, the network is looking to put the focus on Daryl Dixon, played by co-star Norman Reedus who is negotiating a higher deal that will see bigger pay and the focus of the show on the crossbow wielding redneck tracker who is Rick's best friend and right hand man.
The Walking Dead Season 9 is set to premiere sometime on October this year.
With a few weeks to go before it resumes its eight season run, AMC has released a brand new trailer promoting the midseason premiere of "The Walking Dead" - which shows Rick Grimes all but lost as Alexandria lies in ruins and his son Carl having a walker bite which is a sure death sentence. Meanwhile Negan wrestles to retain control within the ranks of The Saviors, while the rest of the survivors and players in this war have their own issues and stakes to deal with.

It's been a very tense and emotional confrontation between the allied forces led by Rick, Maggie, and King Ezekiel as well as Negan's Saviors, and both sides have lost people - including loved ones who matter to the remaining survivors.
Now back on AMC and bringing "All Out War" between Team Rick and Team Negan to a head, The Walking Dead has returned and will feature our favorite survivors contending with The Saviours besides the constant threat of the undead. Now that episode 100 entitled "Mercy" has aired - we look forward to the next one - and here's a preview for "The Damned".

With SDCC '17 in full swing and gearing fans of comics, movies, television, and just about anything fun in pop culture ready for what comes next, AMC held their much anticipated panel discussion for "The Walking Dead" and featured the stars and crew behind the critically acclaimed zombie drama TV Series. In addition to Andrew Lincoln and the cast and showrunners like Greg Nicotero on the stage, everyone was on deck to talk about Season 8 and what to expect - which was covered by Comic Book.com in their live blog update.
Besides the new promo poster released that promises "All Out War" between Rick Grimes and his allies against Negan and The Saviors, the new Comic-Con 2017 Trailer has been released online. Check it out and see what to expect of the battle, and of the future.
Set to premiere this fall and preparing fans for announcements and teasers to come this weekend with the San Diego Comic-Con, AMC's The Walking Dead has been spotted putting up a new banner poster for the eighth season that promotes "100 Episodes" of the series that have come and gone, with a collage featuring all the events and characters in the series that includes Rick Grimes, his fellow survivors, and their enemies. This comes courtesy of Twitter user Simon's Jacket, and it certainly looks like a true testament to the show - which airs its 100th Episode with the Season Premiere.
Also a special shout out of respect goes out to none other than George A. Romero - the "Father of Zombie Films" whose works like Night of the Living Dead and Dawn of the Dead inspired The Walking Dead and what we know as the modern zombie today. His zombies have appeared in TWD as homages by his proteges like Greg Nicotero, and we will never see another filmmaker as passionate and innovative as him. May this master and horror icon rest in peace.
With the mid-season finale episode "Hearts Still Beating" now aired and done for this year, fans of AMC's The Walking Dead are looking down the road and have seen a new glimmer of hope for Rick Grimes, Alexandria, The Hilltop, and those being abused by Negan and his Saviours, as the group looks to finally fight back and go up against the tyrannical leader of The Sanctuary. To promote the next half of Season 7, AMC has released a new banner key art poster with the entire cast front and center, with the word "Rise Up" over them while Rick stands in the middle with his Colt Python returned to him and signifying that "The Sheriff is Back In Town".
