BrutalGamer Bringing you Brutally Honest feedback from today's entertainment industry.
Fresh from Comic Con International, check out the latest glimpses of The Walking Dead: Dead City, season 2.
Whistling intensifies
Dead City lives. And of course we mean that in terms of season two of AMC Networks’ The Walking Dead: Dead City. The spinoff of the classic horror show brings the zombie plague to its vision of a post-apocalyptic NYC, where the undead stalk the streets, and the humans that remain vie for supremacy in a vicious and brutal world. Add TWD alums Negan and Maggie to that mix, and things are bound to get interesting.
With season one in the can, fans are eagerly awaiting the follow-up, which is coming to the network in 2025. If you’re among those looking forward to seeing TWD’s continuing adventures in the big town, then you’re going to want to see what’s spun out of today’s panel at Comic Con.
The event was moderated by Chris Hardwick, and showcased “Executive Producer Eli Jorné, Executive Producers and Stars Lauren Cohan and Jeffrey Dean Morgan, and Cast Members Gaius Charles and Željko Ivanek”. The attendees went over what’s on the way in the new year, which included new casting announcements. Keir Gilchrist (as Benjamin Pierce), Dascha Polanco (as Major Lucia Narvaez), Jake Weary (as Christos), and Pooya Mohseni (as Roksana) will all be joining the cast, for a tale that sees the unlikely duo of Negan and Maggie meet.
Check out an early look at the action to come, in the teaser below.
The Walking Dead: Dead City follows fan-favorite characters Maggie (Cohan) and Negan (Morgan) as they travel into a post-apocalyptic Manhattan, long ago cut off from the mainland. The crumbling city is filled with the dead and denizens who have made New York City their own world full of anarchy, danger, beauty, and terror. In season two, in the growing war for control of Manhattan, Maggie and Negan find themselves trapped on opposite sides. As their paths intertwine, they come to see that the way out for both is more complicated and harrowing than they ever imagined.
