A Third Spinoff of The Walking Dead Is Coming — Here's What We Know So Far

Details about what the show will entail are still scarce, but what we do know is that it will follow two young female protagonists. According to AMC's official statement about the upcoming series, the show will "focus on the first generation to come of age in the apocalypse as we know it. 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, both good and bad."

The series will star Alexa Mansour as Hope, Aliyah Royale as Iris, Nicolas Cantu as Elton, Nico Tortorella as Felix, Hal Cumpston as Silas, and Annet Mahendru as Huck.

Matt Negrete, who's written for and produced TWD for five seasons, will serve as cocreator on the as-yet untitled spinoff alongside Scott Gimple, chief content officer for the Dead franchise, and filming will kick off in Virginia this Summer.

An exact premiere date hasn't been locked down for the 10-episode series as of now, but it will arrive at some point in Spring 2020.
