AMC Gives New Series “The Walking Dead: World Beyond” an April Premiere Date
New characters. New zombies. New world.
AMC is expanding the world of “The Walking Dead” with a second spinoff series this year, centered on two young female protagonists and telling the story of the first generation to come-of-age in the apocalypse as we know it. Titled “The Walking Dead: World Beyond,” we’ve learned tonight that AMC will be premiering the brand new series in April.
The 10-episode first season of the series will premiere Sunday, April 12, 2020 at 10pm EST. Subsequent episodes will then air Sunday nights at 9:00 p.m. EST.
The lead in for the premiere will be the main show’s season 10 finale. Additionally, we’ve learned that the plan is for “World Beyond” to run only two seasons before wrapping up.
“Some will become heroes. Some will become villains. In the end, all of them will be changed forever. Grown-up and cemented in their identities, good & bad.”
“Two sisters along with two friends leave a place of safety and comfort to brave dangers, known and unknown, living and undead on an important quest. Pursued by those who wish to protect them and those who wish to harm them, a tale of growing up and transformation unfurls across dangerous terrain, challenging everything they know about the world, themselves and each other.”
Jordan Vogt-Roberts directed the pilot episode. Alexa Mansour, Nicolas Cantu, Hal Cumpston, Julia Ormond, Aliyah Royale and Annet Mahendru will lead the cast.
Kathryn Hahn is back as the bewitching villain Agatha Harkness in the upcoming Disney+ series “Agatha All Along,“ confirmed as the official title of the upcoming series tonight.
“Agatha All Along” premieres with the first TWO episodes on September 18.
You can watch the title reveal video below, which makes it clear that all the previous titles for the series were part of a clever marketing campaign… all along. Well played, Marvel.
Tony-winner Patti LuPone joins the previously announced Aubrey Plaza (Child’s Play) and Joe Locke (Heartstopper), as well as Ali Ahn, Maria Dizzia, and Sasheer Zamata.
Emma Caulfield Ford (“Wandavision”) will also be back as the character Dottie.
Jac Schaeffer (“WandaVision”) is on board the series as writer/exec producer.
Plot details for the spinoff project are under wraps at the moment, so it’s unclear if the series will pick up following the events of “WandaVision.” In the finale’s big final battle, Wanda of course defeated Agatha Harkness, trapping her in the town of Westview.
One of Earth’s most powerful witches, we knew she’d eventually be back…
It was Agatha All Along 🔮
