Production for the third season of the series focusing on Negan and Maggie is set to start later this year, with a new showrunner overseeing the project.

He expressed his eagerness to re-enter the world of ‘The Walking Dead’ series and contribute to more thrilling storylines for this renowned saga,” he stated.

I’m delighted to help write the next exciting installment of Maggie and Negan’s renowned journey in ‘Dead City.’ Working alongside Lauren [Cohan], Jeffrey [Dean Morgan] and Scott [M Gimple] is truly a privilege, as their creativity is simply amazing. I can’t wait to join forces with them to breathe life into this compelling tale.

Dan McDermott, AMC’s president of entertainment, expressed gratitude to Eli Jorné for delivering two seasons of Dead City, which skillfully steered the narrative of these legendary characters into captivating uncharted territories and enriched this bustling universe by unveiling a fresh angle of the walker apocalypse.

In our ongoing endeavor to craft fresh tales for dedicated “The Walking Dead” fans, we’re thrilled to announce that seasoned veteran Seth Hoffman will guide a new season. This exciting journey also includes the talented Lauren Cohan and Jeffrey Dean Morgan. The upcoming season promises to introduce fresh enemies and alliances, exploring the complex relationship between Maggie and Negan in unprecedented ways.

Following generally favorable reviews for the first season, opinions among critics were somewhat divided regarding Season 2 of “Dead City,” as indicated by a 63% score on Rotten Tomatoes.

In simpler terms, “Dead City” remains captivatingly chaotic, but lacks a strong enough reason for being, according to CBR. On the other hand, Total Film noted that although the series often emphasizes grand action sequences over consistent plot development, there’s still much to appreciate.

ScreenRant found the enhanced quirkiness appealing, but Collider took issue with it, whereas Fandom Wire commended its lead actors as the primary draw of the show.

The Walking Dead: Dead City is available on Sky and NOW in the UK, and AMC in the US.

The latest edition of Digital Spy’s print issue is available now! You can purchase the “Oasis – Live in ’25” magazine from newsstands or online for only £8.99.
