AMC to air Walking Dead: Origins ahead of season 11 part 2 premiere

The Walking Dead season 11 part 2 premiere date is quickly drawing near and fans are eager for new promotional materials. So far, fans have only gotten a short teaser video and a mysterious social media post regarding Daryl. Comicbook.com reports that AMC will give viewers a treat by airing The Walking Dead: Origins series that previously was only available to AMC+ subscribers.

Starting in July 2021, the first of four character origins stories aired on AMC+. These episodes took a deeper look into four characters from the series by highlighting their journey with clips, interviews, and narrations from the actors who portray the featured character.

The episodes will air each Sunday leading up to the season 11 part two premiere.

Below is the original trailer for the series.

The Walking Dead: Origins release will help carry fans to the second part of season 11 that will air on AMC on February 20. The final season is broken into three parts consisting of eight episodes each. The first part focused on Maggie and Negan’s tension, the Reapers, the Commonwealth and Alexandria. The final episode in part one left viewers with many cliffhangers that will most likely be wrapped up in part two.

A teaser released in October 2021 is a quick look at what is coming next. This part will be Commonwealth heavy and see the introduction of the governor of that community, Pamela Milton.

In November 2021, showrunner Angela Kang posted on social media that the trailer would be coming soon. We are patiently waiting for this release.
