The series is set approximately two years after the events of the flagship series’ final episode. Maggie was raided, and during the raid, her son Hershel, now played by Ghostbusters: Afterlife actor Logan Kim is abducted by The Croat (Zeljko Ivanek), a former underling of Negan’s. Maggie needs his help to secure the release of her son.
To complicate things further, Negan is being pursued byPerlie Armstrong (Gaius Charles), a marshal from New Babylon, a federation of cities/states in Virginia.
How can I watch Dead City in the UK?
Geektown – TV News received some sad news regarding viewing of The Walking Dead: Dead City on Disney+ for viewers in the UK. After numerous conflicting responses from AMC and Disney, a Disney+ UK rep has confirmed that Dead City WILL NOT be coming to Disney+.
Undead Walking will update if Disney+ UK makes any official announcements.
Sadly, the representative who answered the above question gave out incorrect information.
The Walking Dead: Dead City trailer
The trailer below reveals what’s to be expected as far as the landscape of the new series that will drastically depart from the forested setting of The Walking Dead. Manhattan has been cut off since early in the outbreak when the US government blew up the bridge and tunnels connecting the island to the mainland.
Since that time a horde of walkers one million strong as amassed. Another interesting thing revealed in the trailer is that it appears there will be some variant walkers featured in Dead City. One looks to have super speed and another is a meld of multiple walkers.
The Walking Dead: Dead City premieres on June 18, 2023.
