The Walking Dead: World Beyond, the second stand-alone series in AMC’s The Walking Dead franchise, will premiere on October 4 at 10 PM as a lead-out to the mothership TWD. A special Talking Dead after-show to discuss both episodes will follow, the creative team and cast said Friday during the series’ panel discussion at Comic-Con@Home.

The news follows AMC having to postponed the series’ original April 12 premiere date back in March because of the then-growing coronavirus threat that upended most of the entertainment business. World Beyond had wrapped filming, but post-production on the final few episode was impacted by the industry shutdown.
