AMC has finally announced a premiere date for The Walking Dead: Dead City, which is set to hit our screens on Sunday, June 18 at 10pm ET.
We also have a new teaser promo, and while it's only a few seconds long, it does reveal what leads to the surprising team-up between Maggie and Negan.
The footage sees Hershel, now played by Logan Kim, being dragged away, as his distraught mother tells the man that brutally murdered her husband that he's the "only one" that can get him back.
We're not sure who took Maggie's son or why Negan is needed for his rescue, but if a recently leaked set video is any indication, this truce is going to be short-lived!
Star Lauren Cohan appeared at a WonderCon event in Anaheim, California over the weekend, and was asked about the shaky alliance between these once bitter enemies.
“It’s interesting, because we see a very unprocessed level of trauma that we know happened between Maggie and Negan. In Dead City, we really get a chance to [ask], ‘What is this? What does it take to move through it?’ And more than anything, it’s a chance for us to be forced together on this mission. The tension and unmovable things are still very present. We’ve seen them intersect so often, but in this show, it’s really this tunnel that they’re trapped in to face things they may have run away from, more so what Maggie has run away from and what Negan‘s presence brings up for her. It’s like an exercise in intimacy with the worst person.”
