FEAR THE WALKING DEAD Ends With Season 8; New Details On DARYL DIXON, DEAD CITY, And Rick & Michonne Spin-Offs

AMC has confirmed Fear The Walking Dead will end with its upcoming eighth season, while also sharing big updates on Daryl Dixon, Dead City, and the untitled spin-off featuring Rick Grimes and Michonne.

The Walking Dead may have reached its end, but AMC isn't going to let the zombie franchise shamble off into the distance that easily. The cable channel has confirmed a number of premiere windows for those planned spin-offs along with confirmation that Fear The Walking Dead is going to wrap up with its eighth season. 

Split into two parts, six episodes will air across May and June, while the final six are going to follow in a currently unconfirmed slot later in 2023. 

Filling the void left by that series will be The Walking Dead: Dead City starring Lauren Cohan and Jeffrey Dean Morgan. While we'd previously heard that the plan was for the show to premiere in April, it's now been shifted to a June launch. 

The show follows Maggie (Cohan) and Negan (Morgan) travelling into a post-apocalyptic Manhattan long ago cut off from the mainland. The crumbling city is filled with the dead and denizens who have made New York City their own world full of anarchy, danger, beauty, and terror. 

In addition to the two leads, the series stars Gaius Charles, Zeljko Ivanek, Karina Ortiz, Jonathan Higginbotham, and Mahina Napoleon.

As for The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon, that's also heading our way later this year. In that, Daryl (Reedus) washes ashore in France and struggles to piece together how he got there and why. The series tracks his journey across a broken but resilient France as he hopes to find a way back home.

As he makes the journey, though, the connections he forms along the way complicate his ultimate plan. Clémence Poésy and Adam Nagaitis are the only other confirmed cast members. 

Finally, the still-untitled spin-off starring Andrew Lincoln and Danai Gurira will, as expected, go into production this year for a 2024 debut, and it's said the show presents an epic love story of two characters changed by a changed world.

Kept apart by distance. By an unstoppable power. By the ghosts of who they were. Rick and Michonne are thrown into another world, built on a war against the dead. And ultimately, a war against the living. Can they find each other and who they were in a place and situation unlike any they’ve ever known before? Are they enemies? Lovers? Victims? Victors? Without each other, are they even alive - or will they find that they, too, are the Walking Dead?

It certainly feels like an exciting time to be a fan of this franchise, and while many fans were relieved to see The Walking Dead put down after eleven seasons, it appears there's still plenty of life left in the property if what we're hearing about these spin-offs here is any indication. 

As always, stay tuned to FearHQ.com for the latest on The Walking Dead.
