The Walking Dead: World Beyond unleashes new premiere date and trailer

image


The first season of the third scripted Walking Dead series should already be done and in the books by now. The Walking Dead: World Beyond was scheduled to debut back on April 12. Then COVID-19 hit, and even though filming had already been completed on the 10-episode season, AMC announced on March 20 that the network was delaying the series until later in the year to make sure post-production special effects could be completed, as well as to help shore up programming in case other content (read: season 11 of mothership The Walking Dead) was not ready for air.

But how long would the delay last? Today, during the show’s Comic-Con@Home panel, we got our answer. The Walking Dead: World Beyond will debut on Oct. 4 at 10 p.m. ET/PT, directly after the delayed season 10 finale of The Walking Dead. It will then remain in that Sunday at 10 p.m. time slot, airing directly after the sixth season of Fear the Walking Dead (which premieres a week later on Oct. 11).


We were also treated to a new trailer for the series, which shows the group of youngsters at the heart of the story venturing out of the seemingly heavily guarded confines of home on a journey into the zombie-filled unknown. The trailer also introduces us to a zombie beehive, and how a flashlight can come in handy as a makeshift weapon.

While it operates in the same world as the other Walking Dead shows — and is slightly behind TWD in terms of each story’s current timeline — Walking Dead chief content officer Scott M. Gimple explains what makes the new program different, beyond just its setting of Nebraska. “There's a lot of things that make it different," Gimple told EW earlier this year. “The first one is really the situation with which the characters have been living in, relatively, a first-world situation. Relatively. Because it's focusing on young people, even the "adults" in this are on the younger side, they've more or less grown up with this. There's a certain everydayness of this to them, though they've been behind walls. It's a very big deal for these characters to leave these walls…. It's an incredible act of bravery for some of these people to potentially step out into the world.”

Ugh, who makes these fµck!ng decision. AMC is so disconnected from reality. These kids look wack as hell and they been living in the ZA for 10 years. They got chubby ones and scrawny ones and they act like they have never killed anyone in their whole lives. You have kids in Chicago harder than this now.

Its like starting over for the 3rd time. Who wants to see that?

This show is the walking dead. If they can't end this with a cure or something they might as well let this sh!t die already.

The first Walking Dead stopped being good when they introduced Neagan. Actually you can go back to the Govna and say it should have ended soon after that.

That trailer was cringe worthy. Oh, and A two season limited event? Isn’t that an oxymoron? o_O How is it a limited event if it’s gonna be 2 seasons? :giggle:

So this will only be two seasons then. That scene with the beehive in the zombie was cool. I wish they would add more black people and other poc.

Honestly, the black girls wig is terrible and taking me out the show.

But also, what is the point of the show? Like I'm not getting anything out of these trailers? The dead have risen and you really think we need to see more teenage angst? None of it workd in TWD, so why make an entire series about it?

Honestly looks like they're going for the CW audience here.

I'll give it two episodes to draw me in.....if not......I'm done.

But I am over all of these zombies shows. Isn't there supposed to a TWD movie?

I might watch the first episode, but I expect that I won't like it. FTWD became trash in season 4, and I don't expect World Beyond to be any better.

This looks like a Netflix show that is 10 episodes a season, and maybe gets cancelled after one or two seasons. I would give it one season because Daybreak only lasted that long.

Nico Tortoerlla stays with a job.
