Hand in hand, the actor and actress sat down at the table in Hall H to unveil the state of the Rick Grimes-centric movies we’ve been waiting for for years. Well, the state is … dead. AMC has decided to cancel the film (or the film trilogy) which would show us what became of Rick all this time away from the rest of the protagonists. Universal Pictures would handle the distribution and Craig Zobel was close to directing it.
Eventually, the chain decided to turn that movie into a six-part miniseries will premiere next year and Rick will be joined by Michonne, continuing their apocalyptic love story. The series is precisely described as “an epic love story between two changed characters from a changed world”. They intend to explore whether these two characters can find their place in this war between the dead and the living, and whether their entire past isn’t too heavy a slab for them to continue.
We haven’t seen Andrew Lincoln’s Sheriff since season 9. The characters left him for dead. Michonne said goodbye to “The Walking Dead” in season 10 because she decided to go find him, convinced that she might still be alive.
The other spin-offs
In addition to this new spin-off, “The Walking Dead” has announced that the final eight chapters of the parent series will begin airing on FOX Spain on October 3rd.and that several projects continue to expand the franchise. Tales of The Walking Dead will premiere in September on AMC +. “Isle of the Dead”, a spin-off focusing on Maggie and Megan, will also be released next year. And in 2023 they also intend to launch the spin-off Daryl, which will be based in Europe. Next year we will get tired of the wanderers.
