The Walking Dead Season 5 Spoilers: Kim Dickens Previews Spinoff

The Walking Dead is in the midst of Season 5, but fans are aware that a spinoff is on the horizon. Star Kim Dickens revealed a some new information about the spinoff in a recent interview.

The House of Cards and Gone Girl actress spoke to E! Online about the new series.

"The Internet was very delighted when you were announced as the lead in The Walking Dead's spinoff—were you a fan of the show?
I had not watched it, no…In fact, when I was getting close to getting the role I inquired what I should watch of it and they said don't watch it because A. It's going to be different than that and B. Your character wouldn't know what the apocalypse looks like anyway, you know? It was interesting to think of it that way. ‘Oh yeah, I don't need to watch it.' We're going to be doing something different, it's going to be filmed differently. My character wouldn't know that, she wouldn't have that information so it was a fascinating way to start it, sort of clueless just like the characters really are."

After Dickens revealed that she had not read the comic books but should because "Robert Kirkman's a super cool guy," the actress briefly previewed the spinoff.

"What can you tease? I know they're very secretive.
I can't really, I just know we'll know pretty soon if it goes to series. It's set in Los Angeles. It's not the same time as the mothership, The Walking Dead, and I don't know much beyond the pilot itself.

I wonder if the zombies in LA will look different because of all the plastic surgery.
[Laughs.] Yeah, we're going to have sexy zombies! All I know is there are more zombies that need killing."
