We know lots of information about the spinoff Fear The Walking Dead by now, but we still don't have a premiere date. So when's it coming out?
The "Ask Ausiello" column at TVLine has a bit of news about that.
"Question: When will Fear The Walking Dead premiere? -Joanne
AMC hasn't announced a specific date beyond Summer 2015, which makes me think it probably won't see the light of day until August. BTW, showrunner Dave Erickson - who earlier this week spilled a half-dozen tantalizing teases about the anticipated spinoff - says the first chaotic days of the zombie outbreak will have a 'civil unrest' feel, adding, 'Everyone's trying to deal with the fact that people they know and love are suddenly behaving in [odd] ways, while also trying to process the fact that there are shootings, fires and riots breaking out across the county.' Eventually, a harsh reality [sets in] that 'something far more insidious and unnatural' is going on."
"Fear the Walking Dead takes us back to the earlier, more dangerous, more terrifying days of The Walking Dead," said Robert Kirkman in a press release. "A time when danger was lurking around every corner and the thing mostly likely to get you killed was your own ignorance of the rapidly changing world around you. The stakes are going to be higher and the ride more intense. We're going to show people all the insanity of civilization crumbling that Rick Grimes slept through. Buckle up."
"I could not be more thrilled to be continuing on this apocalyptic journey, dramatizing the horrific disintegration of society through the lens of a dysfunctional family. We've assembled a stellar cast and crew to tell our story -- it's going to be a great ride," added David Erickson.
